Walmart's PC without an OS. I think the analysts are missing the point. I have lots of spare Windows 98 and Me disks that I could use to run this machine. I also have lots of nice monitors that are still usable. This is a discount PC for people that have PC parts (Windows and Monitors) lying around the house unused. This is a relatively fast PC for a kid's room. My problem with most new systems is that I can't unbundle the package and drop the monitor or the O/S to cut the cost of the system. Due to bundling agreements with Microsoft, PC companies pay a Microsoft tax for every PC that ships. Walmart clearly thought that this was a low cost niche they could fill as long as they didn't cut a deal with Microsoft. Nice. [John Robb's Radio Weblog]
