A Very Affordable PC for Kids


Learning is as easy as 123 ! That's the tagline message from Digi to all kids and parents who are into web surfing.

Do you know that Digi http://www.digi.com.my/ has tied up with Taiwanese PC maker AsusTek http://my.asus.com/ to offer a very affordable PC package for kids ? (and it comes with internet access via Digi Highspeed Mobile Access)

Digi has 2 packages available -
1) Simple Plan RM123 x 24 months
2) Smart Plan RM193 x 24 months (with a free Asus PDA mobile phone thrown in)

Wow ! Impressive isn't it ? Nah, you can view more here http://www.digi.com.my/whatshot/promotions/asus/pack.do

Apparently Asus is the pioneering manufacturer for kids' PC to bring IT to 3rd world schools. They partnered with Intel + Microsoft for this offering. I can't seem to find the website on this now ... please wait while i try to get the story.
