Each deputy of Serbia's national assembly might be given a laptop [1] – “in order to replace paper comsumption and increase effectiveness.” While many Serbian bloggers don't think it's a good idea, Viktor Marković of Belgrade 2.0 thinks it is. He also believes that the war in Yugaslavia could've been avoided if internet had been as popular back then as it is now.
