I was reading this article and it looked kind of goofie and misleading to me.

HONG KONG, China (Reuters) -- Hewlett-Packard Co., the world's number-two PC maker, said on Friday it has launched a 3,999 yuan ($483) computer in China, turning up the heat in the intensely competitive market.



It made it seem like it was a big deal to sell a PC for $483 was a deal that was not obtainable in the USA. This of course may be paying too much. My father ordered a computer from Dell around Christmas time and the price for the 400Mhz P4 based Celeron system with a 17" Monitor was $399.00!

$483.00 is not that good of a price. The article did not appear to be researched that well.

I have seen some special deals through AOL for computers for less than this also.
 
The HP has an AMD cpu...not a sh!t p4 celeron
And how do you know this isnt a lot less than the chinese have now.

Also your dad could have recieved a deal...

This barely qualifies as news/politics 😛
