A $199 PC with No Windows, No Intel Inside | |
|
||
| Time: 16:22 EST/21:22 GMT | News Source: Reuters | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

Here's the pitch for what could be your next PC: No Microsoft, no Intel -- and almost no markup. By dropping software from Microsoft Corp.MSFT.O and avoiding "Intel inside," retailer Wal-Mart Stores Inc.WMT.N is offering a $199 computer it says is a hot seller on its Web site, attracting novices looking for a way onto the Internet as well as high-end users wanting a second box. The promise of a PC replacement -- slimmed down to surf the Web and carry out limited tasks -- has long tantalized the tech world but failed to generate many sales, especially as prices of name brand computers have slid. The Wal-Mart machines are full-fledged, if low-powered, computers, but they are not loaded with Microsoft's Windows software or the best known microchips -- meaning that the average user will not get exactly what he or she is used to. | ||
