A $200 new computer is fully supported with warranty.

Don't you see these low spec computers are low value, it actually do a great deal for many many of the users out there (certainly not engadget readers). I'm actually writing my research paper on this. A Windows 2000 can do 95% of the tasks you do day-to-day on an Vista PC. It certainly can't let you play WOW, nor 1080p HDTV, but it can browse internet, send email, voice chat, run MS or OpenOffice and even bit torrent -- and these are the jobs most people do...

But please, screw the MIT $100 then $150 now $200 OLPC programme, i'm going to make my own $200 laptop brand new loaded with Ubuntu. hahahahah]]>Mar 21st 2007 3:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/Mar 21st 2007 1:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/]]>Aug 9th 2007 6:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/Mar 21st 2007 7:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/Jun 19th 2007 9:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/]]>Mar 22nd 2007 12:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/Mar 21st 2007 3:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/
This seems pretty unlikely (and also ridiculous). Although technologically feasible, it is not in Dell's interest to pursue that kind of business, mainly because the consumer backlash here at home would be enormous if knowledge of a deal like that came to light. Companies pander to the Chinese government because they have to, not because they really want to.

Dell has had it pretty rough these last few quarters, and falling behind HP in market share is embarrassing. Now that Michael Dell is back as CEO, he's for sure going to play rough in order to reestablish supremacy, which definitely means emerging markets. Challenging Lenovo is tough, but if they can make themselves a substantial market in China they will be well on their way to turning their stock price back around.]]>Mar 21st 2007 5:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/Mar 21st 2007 5:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/Mar 21st 2007 8:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/
Unless they actually do manage to develop their own advanced computer hardware...]]>Mar 21st 2007 10:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/Mar 22nd 2007 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/Mar 22nd 2007 2:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/21/chinese-dudes-and-dudettes-get-cheap-dell-desktop/I really enjoyed reading all of your posts.
