The story behind the $10 'laptop'
- bdfh42 18y agoNot much "story" there but interesting none the less. Reminds me that when Clive Sinclair launched the ZX Spectrum all those years ago it retailed for £250 (paid up front with quite a wait for delivery) but they were being built for him by Timex at about £12 each. An admirable price/cost "spread" but does underline the fact that useful computing devices can be knocked out at very low prices - although everyone would have to adjust their expectations accordingly.
