Dell, Microsoft Team Up to Sell Red Computers
Dell and Microsoft Corp are teaming up to sell "Red computers", donating up to $80 for every one sold to fund AIDS-fighting drugs in Africa. Dell will start selling two (Red) laptops and one desktop running Microsoft Windows Vista on Friday. The two companies will donate $50 for a laptop and $80 for a desktop to the Global Fund, which finances health programs in Africa. The "Red PCs" will have a distinctive red casing and the Windows interface will feature a red background and sidebar. Microsoft said it expects "several hundred thousand" Red Dell PCs to be sold in 2008.
