In 1995, Tony Podesta -- a powerful D.C. based lobbyist and brother of White
House adviser John Podesta -- had a consortium of top U.S. computer CEOs
attend secret meetings inside the White House. The meetings were on computer
hardware and software exports to China and Russia. The meetings occurred just
before Clinton changed super-computer policy. Within weeks, the Russian and
Chinese were buying computer power that now surpasses the U.S. Defense
Department.

According to documents from the Commerce Department, in 1995 the Computer
Systems Policy Project (CSPP) was represented by Tony Podesta. The CSPP is a
group of computer companies, that in 1995 included Apple, AT, Compaq, Cray,
Data General, Digital Equipment, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Silicon Graphics,
Stratus Computer, Sun Microsystems, Tandem, and Unisys.

Officials working for Apple and Silicon Graphics are documented by the Federal
Election Commission (FEC) to be very large Clinton donors.
