"Families affected by the recent tragic bushfires will be offered a free computer to help them stay in touch with friends and family thanks to the Victorian Government and the Australian Information Industry Association (AIIA). The Premier John Brumby, said families affected by the bushfires want to be in regular contact with friends and loved ones and computers are an important way of staying in touch following the most devastating natural disaster in Australia’s history.“Many Victorians rely on applications such as Facebook and email to keep in regular contact with their community, family and friends,” Mr Brumby said. Thanks to the generosity of many information and communication technology suppliers, we can provide a new computer free of charge to these families in need."
