Nano Computers for Rs. 500
 |
Forget MIT's $100 laptop, "cheap" netbooks, and other crude attempts at making the computer affordable. Here comes the mother of all low-cost computers.
At Rs. 500, the upcoming, yet to be named, nano computer is set to be the cheapest computing device ever. Designed for students, the Government is supposedly readying a prototype of the device to be showcased at Tirupati on February 3, 2009. India's Human Resource Minister Arjun Singh will reportedly unveil the device.
The nano computer has been jointly developed by the IIT (Indian Institute of Technology), Chennai, and the IISc (Indian Institute of Science), Bangalore. The production of the device, however, has been handed over to private firms. It remains to be seen if this project manages to move past the "prototype" phase to actually end up in some assembly line.

It will be good for the students, since computers has come of age in the competitive education field. Hence, computers will be welcomed by many.

Its retail price may go up to thousands. If 'add-ins' & 'plug-ins' facility exists, may require a few more thousands along with internet. Rs. 500/- appears only a 'dream', not reality.

Hi Everybody!
How much correct the news is? It is told as 'computing device' to see internet. Not a computer. A new laptop/notebook with least cost will be around 20 thousand rupees. Not less!!
