Computers for children have been very hot for some years and we are seeing them as we pass by the aisles of toy stores. Most of them are decorated with images of cartoon characters like Barbie and Mickey Mouse.
And now Dell, one of the big computer companies, is going to introduce a “kids” PC for small children. It looks like an adult PC except SpongeBob’s seal of approval on it.
Dell actually took one of its Inspiron Mini models-a basic netbook computer-and joined with Mr. SquarePants’s television network to introduce this Nickelodeon Edition. It will go on sale in October. People can buy it through Dell online and Wal-Mart stores.
Yes, it’s embellished with (plastic) green slime. It has also been programmed to provide songs, videos, games and other contents from Nick shows. It features a kid-friendly graphic interface. It allows parents to monitor its use as McAfee Family Security version is installed on it. You will see an animated link which will get educational content from Whyville.net.
Its internal structure is wholly a Dell Mini1ov netbook. It uses an Intel Atom processor, a 10-inch color LCD screen, built-in Wi-Fi chip. It will come in a very kid-toting weight of less than 3 pounds. It can not serve you for intensive computing. The netbook is actually an ancillary computer. It works greatly for Web browsing and data streaming and watching SpongeBob over a bowl of Cheerios.
The Mini 10v’s pricing starts at about 300-USD. No price has been announced yet for the Nick version, but we can hope a premium of about 50-USD.
