$98 Linux Laptop - The HiVision miniNote
Posted by Charbax on September 2nd, 2008
HiVision makes the worlds cheapest Linux laptop at $98 using a new cheaper MIPS based processor (perhaps the Longsoon or the Ingenic), WiFi, 1GB flash storage, it runs Linux, has 3 USB ports, Ethernet, SDHC card reader, audio in and out, voice-chat, skype, multi-tabbed Firefox browser support and Abiword for word processing. Automatic and secure online software updates. Their current model is running a smooth and pretty snappy Linux user interface. In this video, I got to borrow a review sample of the laptop overnight, and I try to show you all the browser and other software interfaces in this extended video review of this cheap MIPS based laptop. Embedded is the way that I hope that most cheap laptops are going to be based on in the near future, Google will hopefully make a great Chrome browser for this kind of Laptop and hopefully that OLPC soon will announce that they will work to improve Embedded Linux based laptops in the upcoming XO-1.5 and XO-2 designs.

[…] De siste dagene har jeg snakket mye om hvordan datamaskiner til fem hundre kroner eller mindre kan komme til å endre verden, fordi de gjør det mulig for millioner av medlemmer av den nye middelklassen i Kina og India å komme seg på nettet. ASUS Eee, den lille bærbare som ble lansert til rundt tusenlappen i Asia, satte standarden, og nå følger et kinesisk firma opp med en bærbar til $98, HiVision miniNote. […]
