>$50 Allwinner A20 quad core boards may hit the streets soon

I just read the ad. DUAL core is cited. Not quad.

I don't understand the price gap.
We were promised $10 laptops,
and the only new $100 laptop is the "one laptop per child"
    http://www.pcworld.com/article/149131/laptop.html

I remember India saying how they'd have other laptops
at the $100 mark. Never happened.
So why does $50 only buy the motherboard
without screen or kybd or ...

I don't believe press releases. never did, never will.
