Um..if you're talking about computers, I think the US is the place to be. Japanese computers still run Windows or Macs, and those programmers are still in America. In fact, due to export laws, I believe our computers are faster than theirs are (Give the rest of the word old-tech).

Your ignorance hurts me.

They have the latest and greatest of all hardware that can possibly be out, plus stuff not available elsewhere, including super-tiny laptops and small formfactor desktops.

Having good programming/IT skills won't help you much. They have plenty skilled in that area.

There are no anti-racism laws but I'll be damned if I've had trouble because of it.

The first anime convention in several years is going to be AX-Tokyo in early January, 2004. I don't remember when the last one was, and Comiket doesn't count. And the Japanese will use ANY event as a reason to cosplay.
