Want your old folks to use the computer, e-mail, chat with you? Here’s the SimplicITy computer that is made just for them. As the name implies, the computer is very simple to operate as it does not have anything but only six icons on the desktop.
The PC runs on Mint Linux that displays icons like email, browse the web, chat, tutorials etc. And if the user thinks he messed up somewhere, he can quickly refer to the videos done by 72-year old Valerie Singleton or go straight to the desktop by clicking Square One on the top.
These are made-to-order computers and currently come in three variants. A mini-desktop with dual core Atom processor will cost £389.99, a desktop with AMD CPU for £299.99 or a PC complete with display, keyboard and mouse will set you back by £435.99 (AMD) or £525.99 (Intel).
