Wii - I don't know. This is not the Nintendo section. Xbox 360 - I don't know. This is not the Xbox section. PS3 - It depends on your TV setup. It will work if you are using HDMI on HDTV. If you aren't, then you have to deal with the NTSC (USA) and PAL (Saudi Arabia) Standard Definition resolution differences. Your TV would need to be capable of displaying NTSC resolution or you would need a NTSC to PAL converter. As for the games, well, the same issue applies. They would have to be developed to work on an NTSC console. A lot of them are, but there are some that aren't, like Grand Theft Auto IV, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, and Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. Some people may be quick to say yes and say how the games being region free is the reason why, but being region free does not fix PAL and NTSC compatibility.

I don't know about the tv, though i assume so because my sister took her wii from to the US to Japan and it works on their tvs. As for the games, they are all region specific. If you'll want to play new games, you will need to order them online and have them shipped to you.

If they have their network locked down there will be nothing you can do. If you try a free proxy and it infects the network with a virus you will be to blame. Unlike public networks where blocked sites are fairly easy to deal with a corporate network is behind their firewall and they have total control of ports, ip addresses and things. If they have ports properly locked down, the internal ip addresses properly locked down and a black list on the firewall you will not be able to get through with a VPN. I suggest you skip the idea of beating your companies firewall and risk losing your job or worse. Get yourself a laptop or mobile device and surf on that instead. If the local ISP is blocking web sites that you need to get to then a personal VPN will solve that problem easily. In this way you can get to any web site you want anywhere and not risk your job.

not that much! Most Saudi women dont work. Except for immigrants. For example, Im half egyptian half american, my mom is egyptian and she works. Her friend is saudi but she doesnt. They have this tradition that women shud be staying home, cleaning and doing chores! But that was long ago! Now I can tell 50% work and the others dont.
2 :
not safe at all trust me saudi arabia is not a safe place for women they cant even drive !
3 :
It's safe if you adhere to their rules. here is an article about how to travel in the midwest http://www.articlefax.com/2009/11/how-to-travel-in-middle-east-as-woman.html
4 :
It's a very safe place to live and work.
5 :
It all depends on which job it is and the degree of compromise you are ready to take up while staying here. You want to come to Saudi means you've got a job which promises you some amount of money which you cannot get in your present job or the place you live in. Saudi is a typically male dominated country where women have almost nil participation in the professional arena. However these days we are experiencing a minor wave of changes, where girls are to be seen in the corporates. More and more girls are getting higher education and instead of going to other countries are managing to secure a job here. Only once the Govt. or a Father or a Brother or a Son of the girls start understanding the magnanimity of what they are losing by putting half the population under dark covers, will things change for good here. There is already a Co-ed university in Jeddah and I hear another 3-4 are coming up. Offcourse there were opposition from some uneducated idio.ts. But King stood firm and continued this process. Just waiting for Ladies' to drive like the rest of the world ! It's safer here if you take care of yourself properly.

Good question, I want to know myself...I'm not sure if women are allowed to work...maybe they make women-only buildings for them, just my imagination, I need to do some research lol. I guess it differs from whether the woman is Saudi or not too

Used to live there......in a word, no. The country and government are too Islamic Conservative, most marriages there are arranged, and apart from among the western minority there, the dating scene is extremely small. If you did set a online dating website up, it would probably be shut down fairly quickly. Also, remember that alcohol is banned there, and most people there look down on sex before marriage, and that women are made to wear the hijab, and many choose to wear fully covering obayas (think that's how you spell this, not sure, sorry). Also you could be liable for prosecution there, and that really could go badly, they still have alot of capital sharia punishment there. Basically, it's a no go-er very few people, if anyone, would use the site, and it would be in extreme danger of being shut down by the authorities there. Hope this helps :)

On Line dating has flaws and corruption is always a factor in everything man touches . Saudi has different laws regarding marriage than here in the states of America so I would think it would not be as received as it is here unless its arranging marriages for people that have never met. now that would work...wink DINO
3 :
woww........i don't live in saudi Arabia but i don't think so...
4 :
if both parties are ok wid that than why not. ?
5 :
Yes, there are such sites. It is different than the american version but has the same idea. The Saudi version is meant for marriage not plain dating..
6 :
My cousin met his wife there, and they have a beautiful child.
7 :

What do you think?;-) Thanks
