Cuba is a good example of the falacy of the argument. As far as the computers are concerned, unless the sellers provide ongoing service and support the computers will eventually crash or bog down. I suppose support was part of the deal, meaning continued treasonous acts. The answer is in the amount of surplus money floating around in government budgets. So buy a computer you don't need and dump it.
Government waste is built in.
It is the nature of the beast. It was one in a series of relaxed Clinton rules that have security analysts alarmed. Ignorance and hysteria make a such laughable combination.
