Mod Pinoy | Getting Mod all the way

I think this is another “Jeepney” ride for me, another great stuff from my fellow Filipino. Neo Philippines launched their mini laptop -eXplore X1 that is running in an Intel processor and a Windows XP OS with a 30GB hard disk. Something they want to compete in the world of EeePC that really make a buzz after its release. The price is very competitive to EeePC or asus which is running in a non-Windows OS. Here is the media release note:

PC manufacturer Neo and multinational computer processor maker Intel have jointly launched a new 16,999-peso mini laptop (eXplore X1), spokesmen said Saturday.

The Neo Explore is a “ruggedized and shock-proof” laptop with a keyboard that will not be damaged by spillages of liquids, said Neo spokeswoman Mariel Que.

It weighs 0.66 kilograms (1.45 pounds) and is the size of a schoolchild’s lunchbox but will have the memory capacity and usual features of a standard basic laptop.

Though the Explore is primarily designed for primary school children here, it can also be used by first-time PC users for word-processing and Internet access, said Intel Philippines country manager Ricky Banaag.
