Anybody have more stories to share about this? I am wondering how difficult a problem this is. Most of the Indians I have met in the US are all extremely competent with very good looks to match; this article was very surprising.

It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with a guy's looks or competence. In an arranged marriage the practical factors take precedence. Marrying a guy who is supposed to support you and your future family, but only makes $80K-$100K a year in the Bay Area simply isn't very practical.
