bouche Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Cuba is lifting bans on Computers and DVD players and soon air conditioners and even TOASTERS!I do wonder what it will be like to jump into computers 30 years after the personal computer was first introduced. I'm assuming they'll start with the Apple II, the progress to either a macintosh or Commodore 64 while eventually the population of cuban nerds will be debating PCs over Macs and Linux over Windows.

Velvet Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Yeah, I was on the internet down there too, but always at a business. I never saw a computer in anyone's house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 From the above article..."Only foreigners and companies can buy computers in Cuba at present, while DVD players were seized at the airport until last year, when customs rules were eased" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaimoe Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Raul is considered more moderate than Fidel, so expect more subtle changes in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 I hope the drinking laws don't change. I never experienced such liberal drinking laws in my life. Walking around the streets openly drinking whatever you desire. mmmmm....boozy street walking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
