CherryPal debuts $99 netbook, names it Africa

If you’re looking at a netbook whose motto is “small, slow, sufficient,” you pretty much know what to expect. CherryPal’s latest, named Africa (in honor of the nation of Ghana or something), has everything you’d want in a $99 computer: a 7-inch display, 400MHz processor, 256MB memory, 2GB flash storage, and either Linux or Windows CE under the hood. According to the company, you can expect about four hours use on the included Lithium battery. If that weren’t enough, the company has introduced its online store — no longer do you have to pick up your CherryPal PCs on the streets, like we did when we were your age. Hit the source link to get started — but not before you check out the PR after the break. It’s a real page-turner.
