Small correction: Accenture was incorporated in Bermuda. But moved to Ireland in 2009, again for the tax purposes though!

yea true, again for taxes... And it should be noted that Accenture struck a deal with the Bermuda government (me thinks) to pay limited amounts on a fixed timeline, in any case, they were paying pennies (and got a lot of heat for it) while raking in billions.

Ireland, good find, hopefully the gov't can get more into their pot of gold :P
