Today, I have been mostly... launching a new PC in the national media

Nov 11, 2009 14:21

I must be brief, for now, alas, but in case anyone is interested, my project for the last 6mth or so was launched today at the Institute of Directors.

It is the SimplicITy Computer, a new, inexpensive, radically simple PC powered by Linux, aimed at older computer novices who want to get on the Internet.

There's been a fair bit of media coverage so far...
