Oh they have. Today (just coincendentially of course) I ran across an
article in the last issue of Linux Journal about another approach for
distributed programming written by Iranian guys (and they developed the
system too, not only wrote the article).
So they have at least two computers (assuming kernel mirror is on one of
them) :-)
One of my friends used to say that he see the main threat to Israel in
the fact that Iranian kids take prices on International Mathematical
Olympiads (and outperform there Israelis btw). Now one can add "and run
Linux".
So Iran is by no means in one row with Lesotho, Swazilend and Zimbabwe
and this, frankly speaking, scares me. :-(
