MTNL to offer PCs Priced at only Rs. 4500

MTNL Desktop without CPU Great new for all MTNL customers!

Economic Times has reported that besides offering landline, mobile and internet services, now MTNL will offer a PC with internet connection at a onetime payment of just Rs. 4500.

According to the publication, MTNL will initially sell low cost PCs in a partnership with Chennai-based Novatium in Delhi, the capital of India.

The news also says that this PC will look similar to other desktops, but does not contain a CPU unit or any storage devices. Rather, terminals will be connected to a centralized server in the locality by MTNL and provide it with the internet service. That means storage of data and all other applications are done by a centralized remote server.

Advantages of these PCs would be low cost of ownership and low maintenance. Thus, it is good news for people who cannot afford a steep PC.

We will report more details as soon as we get more information about this new and interesting concept of personal computers.
