There's always a first time for everything, even Hi-tech like Computers. Surely no one would believe other than some house owners or even companies do not own a PC that a COUNTRY even has it's first time ownership!
I'm talking about a recent news I read about Cuba. Entitled "Computers go on sale for first time in Cuba", news released in Havanna recently told of the sale of PC to the public for the very first time. Well, of course the Government hasd their PC's for awhile now but not the public. That goes without saying that this communist government Island under their new Presidency felt that the ban should be lifted. Costing about US$780, many are still just able to take a glance at the only electronic store available in a shopping centre in Havanna that sells PCs, for now.
The response was good though many still are within reach. Other than trusted officials & state journalists, the people will still not be able to connect to the rest of the world as the internet is still not made available. So, for now, other than playing games & doing school work, the computers may never be connected to the web, yet.
Even so that if they were given a chance to link the web, they have their limitations and they may never shop on line as they do not have credit or debit cards yet!!
Yet another yet. Hope that under their new government, they will grow to be more open-minded and join the rest of the world. What a darkest side of the world in this hi-tech future.
God bless their citizens!

Future Beyond
Just as the UsUal remarks - TIME Flies!! And it does really flies. The last time I was mentioning about the touch screens of the future. Well, I found a short article related to it but it's not the one I was looking for that resembling that Minority Report movie., but an eye-opener. That's beyond believe! ( other than the Quantum Leap - the Star Trek reality to be )
I'm talking about just touching another person and that information can be UPLOADED!! Yeah! Transmitting data via the human body! Just a handshake will do. Ya,"this is Japanese, it's definitely the Japanese!" I remembered the remark made by Witwikki in the Transformers movie who first saw Bumble Bee transformed into a robot.
Who else other than NTT ( the dept known as NTT Microsystem Integration Lab) the Telco giant of Japan? A joint effort with Nippon Telegraph Co.is planning to launch a system to enter rooms that frees users from the trouble of rummaging thru their pockets or handbags for their IDs. In their quest for the advanced technology, it will be the world's first commercial applications of human body communication using electric field currents into the body.
This is a direct recognition technology just as similar to your security identity system of the modern cars nowadays, one like the new BMWs.
Well, with nanotechnology and with the microchip getting smaller & bigger in power each year, all these stuffs would be a reality soon. At the same time , the world's smallest transistor has already been created. This could spark the development of superfast computer in no time at all! This is all possible from the world's thinniest material called graphene. It is ONE atom thick & 10 atoms wide, a true electronic nano-component found. It is the most stable & conductive materials ever created. Going below 10nanometre, it is showing advantages of it's miniaturization limit at which traditional silicon-based technology is predicted to actually fail.
Meanwhile, I will continue my search & probe on the "touch screen" technology. It's filed up somewhere. Must have got mixed up during my shifting. Pardon me, huh? Hehe!!
Until then, keep in touch!
Have a nice day!!
