Dell announces little PC for big China

Just yesterday, Michael Dell was reiterating his company's commitment to searching out new markets and lo and behold, what do we have here? Looks like a low-cost desktop PC with a small footprint, aimed squarely at the Chinese market. For the low starting price of around $340, you get a 1.2Ghz Celeron M 205 processor, 256MB or 512MB of RAM, a 40GB or 80GB hard drive, a CD or DVD-ROM drive and a (legit) copy of Windows XP Home Edition. While you probably won't be running Warcraft tournaments off this thing, it should prove more than adequate for basic office tasks. And at that low price-point, it's certainly going to be an attractive option in China.
