Since I have written the title as cheapest pc. First I should tell you the price. Its wait for it 8000 Rs. That’s for everything monitor, CPU, keyboard, mouse, speakers etc.
And the next question you will ask is what are the configurations.
Intel Celeron Processor – 299 MHz
Ram – 128 MB
Hard Disk – 10 GB
Monitor – 14 inches
Comes with internal modem, three usb ports, headphone jack and an Ethernet port.
You will have to buy an external cd drive, mouse and keyboard I have included the price of these in the above mentioned price of 8000 Rs. You buy them at the same company too.
After reading these specification do not think this is an underpowered pc. I use Internet, watch movies through external drive and play games. I can run GTA2 and commandos 2 etc. So it’s quite a good pc, in fact I am writing this blog also from this pc.
All this comes in a very nice package.
So lets start the review. I saw this thing first in an ad in the recently stopped reading computer magazine Digit. The price was 6500 Rs. I was a bit skeptical, but decided to buy one. The first thing that knocked me of my feet was that the computer itself is like the colored imac but only available in blue color. It’s all in one pc so no more worrying about two things like CPU and monitor etc. It comes with a 1-year warranty too.
These pc were meant for some other country I think, so you will get a odd looking keyboard with odd characters which you can use but it will not work well if you are using games etc. The keyboard has no functions keys. So you need to buy a keyboard and mouse. But if you want to use the same keyboard then you can download a software that helps to get the function keys back on their website. And the computer comes with 64 Mb ram which you can upgrade to 128 Mb for just 400 Rs. Which I did and that is the reason for writing 8000 Rs pc. You need to install the operating system yourself. I installed windows xp and everything is working fine.
The best part of this pc is its size, since it’s an all in one pc it’s very compact so it will go well in any room. And it’s best for students when you want to move rooms or places you just need to carry one thing.
it’s very good for single people. If you throw in an external TV card, you have a television and a computer at 10000 Rs.
The computer also comes with a phone that sits on top, which can be used like a normal phone. You put the phone jack behind the pc and use it as a modem and pick up the phone and use it as a normal phone.
It also has a microphone on the top, I wish it were a camera. But still if you want to do voice chats etc. you can use that microphone which is built in on top of the monitor.
I have been using this computer for a year now without any problems. This computer is the answer for all those who want a cheap and stylish pc at a very small price. Many people have asked me if it’s a mac. I even convinced few of them that it’s a mac by putting mac os themes on the pc.
The fan of the pc is on top so you can put it close to the wall without worrying.
They have power button on the monitor so you just need to press one button to switch the computer on and off. They have also placed an usb and microphone jack on the side of the pc so it’s easier to plug it in and out.
All in all a great pc for cheaper price. If you can find cheaper pc that is brand new them contact me.
By the way you can get all the other things like keyboard, mouse, ram upgrade and an external cd drive for inside 8000 Rs at their shop itself. You can even upgrade to higher capacity for a price.

Here is why I have stopped reading digit. It is so out of touch with what is happening. In this world of Internet, blog, podcast and RSS. Who has time to read the news a month later that too technology news. And for the price you pay for a digit (Rs 125) you can get a broadband connection from BSNL and read the same stuff you will get in Digit after a month. I can even tolerate the one-month late thing if there were in the game. Look at their website they have are so out of touch with the Internet. Their site is just a static thing they don’t post anything there, it’s just for getting people to subscribe. Look at PC magazine in US, their site has all the news and info they even have a paper magazine. But there website is even better. There are many sites and magazine that co exists. Look at the this months cover what does Abhishek Bhachan gotta do with a computer magazine. I love Abhi by the way. It’s the whole mind set that is wrong. How cool would it have been to see someone in the Indian tech industry that doesn’t get the limelight. Remember how Kevin Ross on the Business Weeks cover made such a buzz online.
I think now is the time to let you know that I applied for digit job long time back and I received a call from the editor for the job. He asked me to write three articles, which I have written. You can read on of them here. I was rejected and didn’t get the job. So I waited nearly a month so that I don’t write this in anger that I didn’t get the job.
But by the time I got the call from the editor I had stopped reading digit at least two months already. I was a fan of them when they were called Chip. I was such a big fan of them that I even made fan site for the magazine. But now I have stopped reading there magazine for the last four months now.
Not because of the cost or the lack thickness of the magazine. It was just purely because by the time I got the magazine I would have read and lost the interest in what they were reporting. I know they need to do the magazine a month in advance to get it to the printers. But still they could make their website so much more. They could start blogs and keep readers in the loop of what is happening and what they are planning etc. They have forums on the website but seriously how many people take part in that.
As a fan who loved the magazine from its early days to till recently all I can say is please get in touch with what’s happening around you are be left behind. This goes for the entire magazine world, if you don’t have good online presence your days are numbered.
Don’t forget all the newspapers & magazine that doing great join online and offline. That is the only way to go forward. So get your act together as soon as possible.
Here are some examples: pcmag, wired, newscientist, make
