What will you get for $85 computer (manufactured by Thailand based Norhtec Microclient JrSX)? check this out: 128 MB of random access memory, a 300 MHz processor, flash cards (instead of HDD), but it don’t include a keyboard, mouse or monitor. Why buy massive chips with extra storage and memory if you do only “Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Internet and e-mail” with your computer. [via FORBES]

That thing would be great as an “online banking only” PC to make sure that your identity doesn’t get stolen by all the spyware out there on the web.
