The 8 Cheapest Computers in the World


Mele A1000 ($70)

Aside from garnering a cult following, the Raspberry Pi also inspired a wave of imitators -- and it’s easy to see why. These thumb-sized, cheap and Linux-powered devices gave a new population access to technology and innovation, and the (relatively new) Mele A1000 doesn’t stray from this philosophy.

Already out in the market for $70, the Mele A1000 is an ARM PC that runs Android 2.3 originally, but can be tweaked to run Ubuntu Linux as well. It’s powered by the ARM-based Allwinner A10 chip and a 1.2 GHz Cortex A8 ARM core processor. Graphics-wise, a MALI400MP OpenGL ES 2.0 GPU is onboard, and if you ever get the itch to run apps on a TV, the Mele A1000 can handle this task with aplomb. The device also features an SD card slot and USB ports for additional attachments, along with an external SATA port and Ethernet. Computer tweakers, start using your imagination.

    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

    What is the cheapest computer in the world a PC where I can transport 10,000 satellite channels on it for say $39 a month. I see on the internet all the time I can put 10,000 channels on a computer for from $39 a month to $19 a month. I want to buy a pc in less than 2 weeks so please help me get the cheapest pc say $25 so I can put 10,000 channels on it as soon as possible.

    I see no Beaglebone Black. It’s just like the Raspberry Pi but stronger and costs 45$.
