24 September 2008

Mumbai: From the world's lowest-priced car, to the lowest-priced PC, from the house of Tatas.

In a bid to revolutionise computing solutions Tata Teleservices (Maharashtra) Limited (TTML) has launched the Nova netPC, in Mumbai, at Rs2,499, in a strategic tie up with Novatium Solutions.

Nova netPC is a thin-client based network computer that can be used for both Windows and Linux operating systems and accessing the Internet and also runs local applications using USB peripherals.

Its server-driven delivery feature makes it an obsolescence-free desktop, as all the updates are carried out centrally through the server. It has the technical superiority to match with all software advancements and comes with the simplicity of an appliance. Coupled with its affordability, the Nova netPC is a one-stop computing solution for almost everyone.

Features like parental support make it an ideal choice for families with growing children. Maintenance hassles become a thing of the past with automatic virus scans and other software updates. A low, first- time, investment also makes it the computing solution of choice.

"TTML's broadband service, powered by Novatium's patented technology, will help take computing to TTML's fixed line customers and democratise access to information," says Ramesh Iyer, head, enterprise business, Tata Teleservices, "With its wide spread fibre connectivity and infrastructure, TTML hopes to usher in the computing and broadband revolution. The width and the quality of TTML's fibre connectivity in Mumbai and across Maharashtra will substantially enrich the NovanetPC user's experience in accessing the Internet and other computing applications.''
