Intel’s Atom has, so far, been the processor of choice for low-cost netbooks. Now it is migrating upstream to desktops.
Lenovo launched its first desktop, the H200, featuring the Atom processor in a bid to offer "a low cost and high value PC"
"It is designed for customers on a budget who need to read email, browse the internet, view pictures and video and perform other basic computing applications," said Lenovo in a statement.
Why not just get a netbook then?
The H200 desktop comes bundled with the ThinkVision L195 Wide LCD monitor and starts at $400–about the same price it would cost to get a netbook with Atom processor.
