Hear CAG Vinod Rai on: Government Accountability is the key to a Vibrant Democracy

Date: 15th February 2013

As Moneylife Foundation turns three, we invite you to join us to listen to Vinod Rai, the first Comptroller & Auditor General of India who showed us that the government and politicians can be made accountable, if statutory bodies simply do their job. The CAG's relentless audit and fearless disclosures told the story of the massive real and potential losses in the sale of 2G telecom spectrum, the Commonwealth Games, allocation of captive coal blocks, irrigation projects and others is just one part of the story. Staying unflappable under extraordinary political pressure is what has made Mr Rai a national hero and someone we all look up to.

20th birthday of ThinkPad

Posted in Uncategorized on October 9th, 2012 by saigopal – Be the first to comment

The iconic (Lenovo) ThinkPad laptop range completes 20 years today. Ever since its launch in 1992 (by IBM), the ThinkPad has achieved a number of firsts, including being the first laptop to come with an integrated CD-ROM, the first to include a built-in fingerprint reader and being the only laptop certified for use on the International Space Station.

ThinkPad was originally manufactured by IBM until 2005 when the company was acquired by Lenovo. The design has stayed mostly unchanged, getting thinner and lighter but retaining the iconic touchstick built into the keyboard tray.
 
Softcell congratulates Lenovo on this occassion. We are proud of our association with Lenovo as their Channel Partner in India.
 
Last but not the least, we thank the Lenovo India team for the nice 'n' yummy Birthday cake :-)
