With so many PCs available at or below $500 now, is Zonbu at risk of getting squeezed by the main stream makers?
I think so, and I think it may be time for them to start considering some higher profile partners. HP, Acer, Dell and Asus all come to mind and have all shown interest in Linux products. I’d warm up the phone lines at Zonbu HQ, it may be time to start seeing other people (beyond Via)…
I just saw this deal posted over at Deal News:
