Posted by timothy on from the ain't-it-the-way-of-things dept.

narramissic writes "In case you missed it, India's Minister of State for Higher Education yesterday announced the development of a $10 laptop that will target higher education applications. There were no specifications given for the laptop and the rock-bottom price raised questions about government subsidies. Today, the figure was corrected: It's not a $10 laptop; it's a $100 laptop. Still no specs though."

    It is all for poor and needy. 9$ Hardware. 10$ for poor oil industry (was 1$ for transportation before). 45$ for poor M$ stockholders. 36$ for poor politicians.
