Internet cages everywhere. I would imagine other more
affluent nations
such as the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain probably have a higher per
capita penetration of personal computers but I don't know what the
controls over the Internet are. Many Middle East nations have internet
access of some kind though it is heavily censored usually.
Back in the late 80's Bahrain had at least a couple of interesting Computer
Stores (totally PC clone oriented). Though you don't want to know how much
a copy of a US computer magazine cost! I don't remember seeing anything in
the UAE at that time though.
