I read it, it will be $3 per copy, I'm not talking about the actual computer I'm talking about the software, the link CLEARLY says
Microsoft software will sell for just $3 (£1.50) in some parts of the world in an attempt to double the number of global PC users.
so where is my snap judgement? it's MS tryiing to milk money from the consumers. When the richest company ever is trying to sell a product to the poorest people in the world I have no respect for them, to MS $3 even a million times is nothing, but to most of these countries they're targeting $3 is a whole lot of money even if it is the goverments of these countries they're selling it to. I am going to gather that in these 3rd world countries if the goverment gives up 300 bucks for 100 copies of whatever this software is, they will in turn have to cut back on something, don't see places with grass huts having a booming goverment.
