May be ... but HP/Compaq used to have a segmentation of resellers.
May be you could not sell to the company I am working for because
they are "almost" exclusive !

Here there is the segmentation for reseller specialization (more or less):
mining or oil or banking/financial or education or etc ...! It was this way
in CPQ time ! I dont know if changed in HP times !

Too expensive ! May be the Free Trade Area could help lowering the taxes !

You should not look only for Brazil . There are other "strong" economies
here.. Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Venezuela !
