Anyone want a $100 PC?

http://www.cbronline.com/article....FF5B090

Here's a piece from the article :-

The SolarLite will be based on VIA Technologies Inc long-life chipset technologies and is designed to run on 12-volt power via solar panels, car batteries, or even human-powered generators. The software for the SolarLite is provided by the DSL (Desktop/Damn Small Linux) project, a bootable Live CD Linux distribution.

SolarPC also announced plans to give away a million SolarLite computers to schools in emerging countries around the world via the Global Education Link project.

That is incredible..

Another "milestone" for DSL..

A " million "  computers..   WOW !!

In a few more years, the world will never be the same...
I'm happy to be involved at such an early time in DSL history..

I wonder how many NFP's will follow suit..

:)  " I want a solar powered model !   :)

They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. That's nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows.

Unleash the power of the TILDE~~~
