Cuba Discovers Computers

Jody posted this at 9:18 am under consumer, internet & computers

This took me aback: Computers go on sale in Cuba for the first time:

President Raul Castro’s government had authorized the sale of personal computers to average Cubans more than a month ago, but they were not made available until Friday.

Computers haven’t been publicly available before now?! Silly communists.

    That’s my thought… oh you darn communists, you are SO silly.

    These “ordinary” Cubans, most likely, already had access to computers - just not ownership.
