Mandarin can be learnt to an acceptable level in 250 hours.
It's all in how you define 'acceptable'. With 250 hours of Chinese, you can really get by in any major Chinese city
People complain about the tones and the writing system, but the tradeoff is a grammar system that is relatively very, very simple. No suffixes, prefixes, declensions etc. etc. that needs various rules and many exceptions to make sense of.
So 'def' claims that Mandarin is easy If Mandarin is easy but Japanese is hard why doe sit take at least 2000 hours to learn Mandarin to a particular level and only 1600 Hours to Learn Japanese.
In reality English can be learnt to an acceptable level in about 250 hours.

Your description of this years show is spot on, sitting here in Hong Kong waiting to get on a plane back to the UK I thought I'd see what the press thought of the show.
Perfectly described, the only highlight this year was the weather, far better than normal, other than that pretty much everything else failed to impress. Having been a regular visitor to Computex over several years I am asking myself does this show mark the start of the demise of this event? This was without doubt the worst show for many years.
Finnish is hard. Japanese is hard. English, now there's a language with difficulty issues. Chinese, on the other hand, especially Mandarin, is relatively easy.
yay for not linking to V3 for another crap top ten!

How about #1 for this article: it wasn't a top-10 list from that V3 site.

Good to know I wasn't the only one getting bored out of my wits.
