For those who have been putting off their decision to buy a computer for affordability reasons, here's some great news. Keeping its commitment to bring IT to the masses, HCL Infosystems, India's premier information and integration company, has broken the price barrier yet again, making branded PCs affordable than ever before. The company has announced the launch of a new PC EzeeBee Pride that will be available at a price of Rs 12,990.
Positioned as 'value for money' range, EzeeBee is the result of the company's efforts to make PC an afforable entity for the masses. With a distribution focus on smaller towns as well as the Home and SOHO users, this path-breaking PC will be sold in all the HCL outlets across the country. The product comes with the quality and support of HCL, the Indian IT hardware company with a turnover in excess of $ 1.38 billion.
Its chairman and CEO, Ajai Chowdhry, said, "To ensure that high quality is maintained even at a low cost, the EzeeBee Pride is designed for high performance. Built to boost productivity and improve response time, EzeeBee Pride PC is powered by the 1Ghz processor. The multimedia and Internet capable PC comes with the standard one-year warranty, has a 30GB hard-disk, 128 MB RAM, 15" colour monitor, CD-ROM Drive and is backed by the countrywide support network. The PC will be ideal for home users and SOHO segments, offering all the functionalities sought by this segment."
"It is my ultimate dream to see a computer in every Indian home. With EzeeBee, we hope to empower more and more individuals with the power of computing. We believe that the true potential of IT can be achieved only through mass IT penetration. In a country like ours, price is a huge deciding factor and one of the major barriers to achieving it."
"We have taken the lead in finding innovative ways to bring the price down by introducing new technological products that we believe will not only best suit the requirements of the home and SOHO segments, but also go easy on their pockets," Chowdhry added.
The PCs also come with optional bundles like the inkjet printer, UPS, speakers and webcams at an additional cost.
The range is manufactured and tested under ISO 9001 and ISO l4001 certified processes. In January 2004, HCL Infosystems had launched Ezeebee at sub 15k price point.
