New Laptop Costs Less Than $100
What do you look for in a laptop? Size? Weight? Processing power? Brand? Maybe all of the above? If price happens to be among your criteria, how does less a hundred US dollars sound? Here are excerpts from the report:
The new HiVision MiniNote is due out in October of 2008. Overall it looks pretty good. MIPS based processor, WiFi, 1GB flash storage, it runs Linux, has 3 USB ports, Ethernet, SDHC card reader, audio in and out, multi-tabbed Firefox browser support and Abiword for word processing. Running a custom Chinese Linux distrubution named Xip.
The price? $98 USD. Of course, it’s important to note that part of the reason why it’s cheap is because it’s not running Windows. For those who are used to using that, there might be a slight learning curve to overcome here, so keep that in mind. Check out the source link to see the MiniNote in action.
