Classmate PC

Résumé
The Classmate PC, formerly known as Eduwise, is Intel's entry into the market for low-cost personal computers for children in the developing world. It is in some respects similar to the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) trade association's Children's Machine (XO), which has a similar target market. Although made for profit, the Classmate PC is considered an Information and Communication Technologies for Development project (ICT4D). Introduced in 2006, the device falls into the then popular category of netbooks. Intel's World Ahead Program was established May 2006. The program designed a platform for low cost laptops that third party manufacturers could use to produce low cost machines under their own respective brands. Many orders were cancelled in 2009. The Classmate PC is a reference design by Intel. Intel did not build the subnotebooks, but produced the chips that power them. The reference design was used by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) worldwide to build their own branded Classmate PC. The reference hardware specifications as of September 28, 2006 are: Customized mini chassis 245 mm × 196 mm × 44 mm CPU: Intel Celeron M mobile processor (915GMS + ICH6-M) CPU clock speed 900 MHz (with 32 KB L1 cache, no L2 cache, and 400 MHz FSB) 800 × 480 7-inch diagonal LCD, LVDS Interface, LED B/L 256 MB of DDR2 RAM 1 GB/2 GB flash memory (connected via USB) 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet Realtek WLAN 802.11b/g with antenna (connected via USB) Intel GMS915 integrated graphics chip (8 MB shared memory) Built in microphone Built in stereo speakers Stereo 2 channel audio, jacks for external stereo speakers and microphones, Line-out, and Mic-in Integrated keyboard with hot keys Cycle touch pad with left and right buttons Customized Note Taker with wireless pen TPM1.2 (Trusted Platform Module from Infineon Technologies or Nuvoton) used for the Intel anti-theft technology feature (discontinued in 2015) Power source: 4-cell Li-ion battery with adapter – approximately 3.
