Talk:History of computer hardware in Eastern Bloc countries

message: A lot of info is missing. Just one example: first, most popular Polish PC is missing(sic). http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meritum_%28komputer%29
Unless this is completely rewritten article - please label it as Article that contains only partial information. As for now grammar is the least of a problem here.

thread_title: Where are Chinese & North-Korean computers? 

message: Well, I am only two years late for this thread, but nevertheless..."Communist countries" here does indeed seem to talk about the USSR and allies otherwise members of Comecon and/or Warsaw Pact. However, Yugoslavia was a communist country that was not a member of either nor was a USSR ally, but it had some very interesting development of its own. I don't know the entire history myself, but many systems existed - Galaksija, CER (photo), Iskra Delta Partner and 800, Orao, Pecom 32/64, Lola 8, Galeb 101, Tim 011 and probably more.
Is it that the name of the article isn't correct as it does not account for China, Cuba, etc. or that it deals with just Comecon? Maybe we should rename and expand the article or make it an introduction and break away pieces into sub-articles?

"Metric inch" is a name given to a measure unit equivalent to 2.5 cm, instead of the 2.54 cm of an inch.  Whether the term is good or not, it has been used quite widely.--Gorpik (talk) 12:12, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Was it illegal according the local laws or only according to Western laws? Are there court decisions and/or precedents considering legality?
