Pope Benedict XVI

Vatican City, Jul 20, 2009 / 12:11 pm (CNA).- The Italian technology firm Olivetti has given Pope Benedict XVI a top-of-the-line laptop computer to help him continue writing the second part of his book, “Jesus of Nazareth,” after he fractured his wrist last Friday while on vacation.

The Pope was given the computer on Sunday in the Italian town of Romano Canavese, where he prayed the Sunday Angelus with about 9,000 people. The laptop was presented to the Pontiff by Franco Bernabe of Telecom and the president of Olivetti, Francesco Forlenza.

The computer also contained a slide show of papal photographs featuring Pius XII and John XXIII, who also visited the town.
