Classmate

A low-cost PC from Intel for the education markets of developing countries. Part of Intel's World Ahead program and introduced in May 2006, the Classmate became competition for the non-profit One Laptop Per Child initiative of Nicholas Negroponte (see OLPC). However, Intel joined the board of OLPC in July 2007 and is expected to collaborate on future products.

Linux and Windows Based - No Hard Disk
Like the OLPC, the Classmate has no hard disk. It uses 2GB of flash memory for storage and 256MB of main memory. It can run Windows XP Pro, a beginner's version of Mandriva Linux as well as Metasys Classmate, an educational operating system based on Linux. The Classmate is powered by a 900 MHz Celeron M processor.

The Classmate PC

A very compact portable computer, the Classmate was designed for first-time users around the world. It is more rugged than a hard disk laptop, because it uses solid state flash memory for storage. (Image courtesy of Intel Corporation.)
