$100 MIT computerHere, from a Computerworld blog. CW blogger Frank Hayes says: I realize there’s no place in a low-cost, lime-green, hand-cranked PC-ish gadget for Intel. Intel is focused on the high end, and has been since [Craig] Barrett took over. I’m glad Intel keeps pushing performance up. That’s great for corporate IT shops. It’s a lot less immediately useful to people who can’t afford them.” I myself think ultra-low-cost gizmos could eventually be catnip for the e-book market. Related: Previous TeleRead item.
