1.Most useless Product
Nah, you can find those here: The Five Most Useless Products Ever Sold - Easy Toothbrush - Handy Peel - Facial Flex - Hawaii Chair - Fish Pen - Esquire

2.Money Making Agenda
Clearly, since they have little to no margin on the product.

3.Instead of removing poverty in Country companies are increasing it.
Logic does not follow.

4.Products like these are to fool people and money making..
This is a duplicate of number 2 and hence cannot be counted in your "analysis".

5.Why would a person consider buying these products.
This is the only valid question you have raised. These products are clearly being targeted towards schools and such so it would be the government that would probably be investing in it. Otherwise, it's basically a way to get technology into the hands of someone who can't otherwise afford it.

6.Why not lower the prices of advanced computers.
Why don't I get to fly first class whenever I want to? Your logic really does not follow. They have designed this computer for a specific purpose and budget.

1. How do you say that? At that price, people who cant afford the higher end ones will be able to get it, and they are benefitted

2. People who can afford money are going to buy the higher end ones because it offers more power and productivity. This one will be popular with the people who cant afford much money. And at Rs 1500 (and with the price expected to go down), cant see how big money they will make

3. Explain this better, will you?

4. Almost same answer as 1 and 2.

5. Why would you buy a computer?

6. Those are being done always. Companies cant just lower the price just like that. They have to make sure they meet the cost of production and make some profit (thats why they are in business).

How ridiculous! Without the big names in the corporate sector, we would have still been stuck in some sort of a time wrap like Africa and couldn't possibly have risen to be one of the world's richest and most resilent economies.
