Monitor leader TPV aims low with cheap “nettop” PCs

The deflationary trend in technology continues.

HONG KONG (Reuters) – Top global PC monitor maker TPV Technology on Wednesday said it is developing a low-cost, all-in-one desktop PC optimized for the Internet, in a bid to replicate the success of low-cost portable PCs known as netbooks.

But unlike most of those products, which typically cost more than $1,000 each, nettops would sell for $400 to $600, said Jason Hsuan, TPV’s chairman and chief executive. Models could eventually retail for as little as $300, he added.
