Computers for All, a program from the Brazilian federal government whose goal is to make computers affordable to the population, has already received 50,000 desktops from a consortium involving BitWay Computadores, EnabledPeople and IMTECH Brazil, which offers support to the program.
The announcement of a large delivery of new machines was made yesterday, March 1st, in Ilhéus, in the northeastern state of Bahia. The so-called Ready PC solution provided by BitWay includes preinstalled Linux XP Desktop operating system developed by EnabledPeople. About 10,000 desktops are being delivered every month.
The Brazilian government announced last month that the Computers for All program put for sale 530,000 units during the whole of 2006. The number of all PCs running on free software sold in Brazil last year reached 1.5 million machines.
Brazilians bought 8.3 million computers in 2006, which represents a 46% growth when compared to the previous year. From this total 7.6 million were desktops (a 42% increase) and 680,000 were laptops (a 116% increase). 2.2 million Brazilians bought their first computer in 20.
