Guys ,can you think of a laptop with a 10$ budget.
Even for the HP mini the cost of a low model one is around 200 + dollars and few features.
The 10$ so called thing might be a net book just to browse and do very miniscule jobs ..
I think it might be helpful for school going kids
Don’t think this is for real…

India might be able to manufacture their $ 10- or $ 20- laptops because it has the industrial infrastructure.
This breakthrough will help eradicates illiteracy throughout the third world;it will raise the intellectual horizon of the masses and might have some far reaching consequences in every sphere.

if this £10 laptop gets on the market, which l doubt very much it will, because all rip off merchants who have a strangle hold on the computer market :ie All the big names. They would go down faster than Gorden Brown would if there was an election. No way will,or can they, allow this to happen. But if they do .Can someone tell me where to send my order to,but l won’t hold my breath
