£20 Laptops?

Students at the Indian Institute of Technology and the Indian Institute of Science have developed a laptop that could cost less than £20.


It has been designed as a touch screen for browsing the internet, word processing and holding video conferences.

It uses a memory card rather than a hard drive and can run on solar power.

A manufacturer for the device is now being sought.
