From listening to a recent PC Pro podcast, this £7 "laptop" is not a
laptop at all, but just an external storage device of some kind to
attach to existing computers.
Whatever it is, it will probably have an embedded OS based on Linux.
But please do not believe everything you read in the Daily
Read about this in the guardian a while back. I agree with chris - any
laptop would probably be worth more than that even as scrap.

i dont think its going to be that cheap. Especially in a country where a
cheapy crappy basic of the shelf nokia will cost you at least Rs2000. Thats
like £15 or something!
