Hence some companies have been introducing less sized PCs compared to the sizes of Smartphones and Tabs. These PCs won't have apparatus monitor, keyboard and mouse. The High Definition Television, HDTV which is situated at home it treated as the monitor. We can use Wi-Fi keyboard and Mouse. These PCs are available in pen drive and credit card sizes, here below I am going to present brief description of some Micro PCs Raspberry Pi, MK 802, FX Cotton Candy that are available in market.

Raspberry Pi


The size of Raspberry Pi micro PC is little bigger than of a credit card. We can directly connect it with HDTV. If we have the old age analog television or digital television, then we can connect it with the help an adapter. We can see spreadsheets, play games and see high definition video like in PC with Raspberry Pi. If comes to the matter of Hardware, it works with ARM 11 CPU on 700 MHZ clock speed. Along with CPU, Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) and Digital Signaling Processors are arranged on the system of Broad com system on chip. It has 256 MB RAM. It works on operating systems like Debi an, GNU Linux, Fedora and Arc Linux. We have to boost the operating systems with the help of SD cards. We have to use SD cards even for the purpose of memory. Raspberry Pi foundation which is belongs to United Kingdom has been developed this micro PC. It is available in two models. Model - A is the first released model and Model –B which is released by including online network option and extra USB port is the second model. The first model is available with a price of at-least 1500 rupees and the price of second model is 2000 rupees. For more details we have to visit the below given website.

We can store information up to 64 GB with the help of Micro SD card. With the aid of virtualization client, we can run Ubuntu, Windows, Linux and Mac operating systems. Cotton Candy even works with Android. We can connect it with HDTV and we can use USB power card by plugging it.

Conclusion


Technology has been developing in rapid speed. Plenty of new inventions are happening in the field of technology. As the usage of Personal Computers has been increasing new Micro PCs with less size are flooding into the market. Well in future we may witness more such new inventions in the field of technology allowing benefits for the users.
