MIMOS Berhad has introduced a touch screen PC, claimed as the world slimmest PC, in Putra World Trade Center (PWTC) few days back. Weighting about 800gram, MAkCik PC is aim to reduce the technology gap between cities and rural areas in the country.

Keeping the price affordable in mind, the “smart” people in MIMOS has made MakiCik PC as affordable as they can.

MakCik PC will be priced between RM500-RM1100 and will be available in certain models with different specs. It does not come with keyboard, and has a 16inch of wide screen.

According to MIMOS, some version of MakCIk PC will be equipped with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and WiMAX connectivity. The so called “Aunty PC” will have built in Flash memory and comes with preloaded softwares such as VoIP from MIMOS .

It is still unknown on what operating system will be available on MakCik PC although rumors has claimed that Vista will be made available on it.

I wonder why it is called “MakCik PC”, but it is a good move by MIMOS to make PC affordable to all Malaysians.

MIMOS did not announced when MakCik will be available in the market.
