Engineering:Ultra-low-cost personal computer
From HandWiki
An ultra-low-cost personal computer (ULCPC) is an inexpensive personal computer such as a netbook or a nettop. The term was most often used by Microsoft to define a class of computers that were eligible for special licensing and discounts. For example, the availability of Windows XP was extended[1][2] and discounts were offered[3] for ULCPCs. Microsoft has relaxed the definition to include larger displays (up to 14.1") and touchscreens.[4] Windows support for ULPC's ended on June 30, 2010.[5] They no longer use the term or distinguish ULPCs as a distinct category of computer.
