This is not really true. Since Haiku was Westernized
(Why do we say this,
when Japan is west of us?)
A quick glance at a globe confirms that Japan is most definitely in the east.
In fact, it is east of all of the United States, with the exception of a small
portion of Alaska that happens to be in the far east.
Don't get directions confused with locations. It is often the case that the
fastest way to get to the east is to travel west.
Speaking of things from the East, does anyone have any microcomputers from
the former Soviet Union? Reportedly they made some sort of 8080 clone
(though it was in a 48-pin package); I've also heard of an Apple ][ clone.
