Hi Darrell and Fabricio and everyone,
One things for sure - after Fabricio completes his studies in Brazil he
probably won't meet a potential employer who has any preference for which
uni he went to in WA!  I look forward to hearing some good objective
observations that can help him make his decision! (and give me insight - I
wish I'd studied 'it' years ago)
Regards,
Daniel.
