The 8 Cheapest Computers in the World


DataWind Ubislate 7 ($60)

Late last year, India announced a noble project to the world: The country would create the "world's cheapest tablet computer," intended for students and offered at the lowered price of $35, and later on in stores for $60. Available as of October 2011, the Aakash -- eventually called the Datawind Ubislate 7 on retail availability -- features a 366 MHz Conexant CPU, 256 MB of RAM and 2GB of storage (expandable via microSD).

Instead of a capacitive touch screen, however, the tablet has a 7-inch resistive LCD display, runs on the Android 2.2 operating system and has access to the Getjar market instead of the traditional Android Market. Though it notches a rather short battery life of three hours -- and even shorter when you're playing HD video -- the endeavor is still an altogether laudable one for a population where most commercial tablets have simply been out of reach.

    I believe T-Bell is the cheapest tablet computer. I bought the T-Bell T204 from their website http://www.tim-bell.com for $87 and it’s served me well. I believe they also have a $99 laptop, although I’m not sure if it’s the cheapest in the market
