Britt Systems and Technalign have come together to make pre-build computers with the base model coming in at $300 (about £160). The system itself is not that spectacular with 256MB of memory, 80GB hard disk drive and an AMD Athlon 64 2800+ processor. You might have noticed something, Windows XP really needs 512MB of memory, well it does not have Windows XP, it comes pre-installed with Frontier which is a distribution of Linux. That is why it is so cheap, I am surprised other companies have not tried this before.
