I really enjoyed hearing about the phone systems, UNIX, and IBM! It did not surprise me to hear that it was easier to make a call to the United States than from department to department.
It would be great to see a follow up story that shows the impact of the software development, and focused more on the standard of living. Another area that could be addressed are the challenges that climate and weather conditions pose. I am particularly interested in the weather aspect because another article mentioned the extreme wind and heat conditions in India
