Consumers on shoe-string budgets, confused about whether to buy a desktop or laptop, now have reason to settle for the latter. Why? It's been raining low-cost laptops lately.

After Asus and OLPC ($100 laptop), Allied Computers International (ACi) has now announced a low-cost compact laptop which comes for around Rs 15,000 in the Indian market.

ACi entered the Indian market in 2004 with laptops priced as low as Rs 29,999. Back in 2006, the company launched a laptop for Rs 19,999.

With the latest announcement, ACi plans to further widen its net. The new laptops are scheduled to be available by mid next year.

They have an Aluminum body as against those with fiber or plastic, which is the real reason behind such low prices.

ACi plans to increase production from the existing 10,000 to 100,000 laptops per year.

And to make the laptops more easily available to consumers, the company plans to open its own showrooms across the country as also tie-up with supermarkets/malls/retail showroom franchises.

Email:- johnkoshy02@yahoo.co.in Dear Sir, I was running a shop in Kayamkulam, Alleppey dist., dealing in assembled system for the past six years. I did all the purchase from Cochin. At present I am winding up with this assembled system, and am interested in marketing laptops which I feel is comparatively profitable. Through internet I came to know that ACi Laptops is Cheaper than the other branded Laptop. I also want to know whether there is any dealer in any of the districts in Kerala, if so let me know, because, I will not be interested to stick to that particular district. Kindly give the laptop details Configuration, screen size, model no., price ( distributor & MRP price ) etc. Let us know the criteria of the business dealings. Waiting for the reply at the earliest.

Look, it is the inside stuff and performance that really matters and not the cost, otherwise whatever money one spends becomes a waste; the consumer suffers and company thrives - the same old story of busines profit without commitment.
