Could an American Techie find work in North Baja?
UNIX/Linux, Windows, POS, networking, web development.
I am not looking to make any great fortune, just want to keep a hand in.

I live in TJ and work for US companies telecommuting. You can probably get something similar with your skill set. You'll make a lot more money
working for a US company plus you don't have a work permit problem.

Thanks DENNIS. I meant the second definition but I edited my silly post. Woooshes response, which I still don't get, got me going down the wrong path.
I was thinking it was Ludditeish, maybe.
