Setting a new milestone in affordable computing space, Zenith Computers, the Indian PC manufacturer, announced the launch of a new laptop and desktop under the brand name EcoStyle.
Priced at Rs.14,999, the laptop will be the lowest priced Windows OS-enabled laptop in the market while the desktop PC will be available at a market price of Rs.11,999. Both the products will be available across India in time for the festive season, the company said.
Though the initial Rs.10,000 PC failed to perform, Raj Saraf, CMD, Zenith Computers, said, "With the EcoStyle PC, Zenith is bringing a true low-cost PC which underlines performance and affordability for the consumers."
Targeted at the youth, the laptop is Net-enabled, and comes preloaded with the Microsoft productivity suite: an operating system (Windows XP Home Edition), Microsoft Works (includes Word Processor, spreadsheets and PPT viewer), and Microsoft Windows Live Suite (includes Email Client, Messenger and Family Safety from Windows Live OneCare).
The EcoStyle PC will offer the option of choosing Windows Vista Starter or Microsoft Windows XP Home. The PC weighs 2.2 kg and has dimensions of 185 mm x 250 mm x 70 mm. The desktop will also come preloaded with the Microsoft productivity suite. The EcoStyle PC is designed for small office- home office owners.
In addition to the portability and the content, both the computers have an added advantage of reduced power consumption due to a smaller screen size. On an average, they consume 30 percent less power, the company said .
Zenith's chain of 800 authorized dealers and 350 exclusive showrooms will stock these computers.
