Alex PC - laptop for illiterate

Now, if not everyone, then almost every user is faced with the need to purchase a computer for mom or a child. Characteristics of such machines, as a rule, are secondary matters. Important price and ease of development. At the same time, specialized children's desktops like the Kids Cybernet Station are morally obsolete. Especially for users who are illiterate in terms of computers, the British company Broadband Computer under the Alex PC brand has released an upgraded version of the 15-inch Clevo M760T laptop.

A feature of the model is a Linux-based OS in which access to all necessary functions is maximally simplified. The launch of a player, text or graphic editor is performed by clicking on the large icon “tightly” pinned to the desktop. The machine downloads new versions of the software from the network on its own, without hurting the user to update the proposal. The usual "users" laptop also does not imply. Instead, each family member is given a personal password-protected USB flash drive, which stores all the desktop settings, personal files, and the like. I stuck it before launching - and everything works, got a flash drive - and no one will know what you did.

The machine is based on Intel Celeron T1600, has 1 GB of RAM and a 120 GB hard drive. There is also a Wi-Fi module, a 1.3 MP webcam and a DVD drive.

It costs a laptop 620 dollars.
