 What we have been arguing here is that the principle of imitation is what has helped those countries who have successfully developed and as a result lead ahead in material riches or prosperity. 'There is nothing new under the sun', as the wise man's proverb says. What we see as wonders that make us marvel and sometimes think that we cannot accomplish them ourselves as African nations, was accomplished by men just like you and me. Some were even naive those days than you are I now. It was never accomplished because they had a different gene than you do, neither was it accomplished because they had any superior intellect or capability. They were serious, and had all their talented men gathered around before they could do it. But due to the fact that they had those information translated into their language that could helped them to comprehend properly, they spent hours always trying to deal with a particular problem that took weeks, months, years, and sometimes decades before they could accomplished a project or a difficult task that challenged their minds. - By: Desmond Ayim-Aboagye  More Quotes | Submit a Quote |

CALGARY, AB (April 8, 2009) - Userful Corporation, the worldwide
leader in high-performance, low-cost desktop virtualization, today
announces a "PC" giveaway in celebration of the 39th anniversary of
Earth Day. Userful is giving away a free 2-user version of their
innovative software which turns one computer into up to ten with the
goal of having 100,000 people download the software and share their
computer before Earth Day. In 2008 Userful's PC-sharing software
saved over 40,000 tons of CO2 emissions, and is on track to save over
200,000 tons of CO2 in 2009, the equivalent of taking more than 35,000
cars off the road, or planting 50,000 acres of trees!
Desktop computers sit idle while we check our e-mail, surf the web,
or type a document. Userful's PC-sharing and desktop virtualization
technology leverages this excess computing power to create an
environmentally efficient alternative to traditional desktop
computing. Up to 10 users can work on a single computer by simply
attaching extra monitors, mice and keyboards.
"On March 28th hundreds of millions of people turned off their lights
for Earth Hour," says Timothy Griffin, President of Userful. "Events
such as Earth Day and Earth Hour prove that a simple change worldwide
can dramatically reduce global energy consumption and consequent CO2 Continued
