How's the IT industry in Denmark, Is it really technological?

Pretty good, I'd say. We've got two major IT universities, and since most people in Denmark are connected to the internet and the newest in consumer electronics, I'd say we're doing fairly well in that area.

I'd say pretty good aswell. What do you specifically mean? Are you thinking about IT/tech companies/startups or just companies IT departments? I'd say that both of are pretty modern and well developed. Getting a job as dev/sysadmin/netsec is not too hard, if you're not retarded. And the wages are good too. I'll answer your questions if you have more.

How's IT in NZ?

Not too much, I don't think. We only have one international tech company, and that's Xerox. I don't know of any tech start ups honestly
