      ab: The article highlights a joint Israeli-Palestinian Internet startup company, G.ho.st., meaning Global Hosted Operating Systems. The company markets a system for providing access to programs and files from any computer with internet access, also called cloud computing. The company's research and development is conducted in Ramallah, West Bank, by Palestinian computer engineers. They videoconference with their Israeli counterparts in Modiin, Israel, 40 miles away. The company's founder, Zvi Schreiber, has never visited the Ramallah office. He states that his goal is partly social in allowing Israelis and Palestinians to know each other professionally. He says they talk exclusively about the work, never politics. It also helps to prevent the brain drain that hurts other Arab economies.
