The A Series of computers are the affordable lineup. Like the cellular phones, and PDAs – these are the cheaper end of machines, and meets minimum NSC requirements. There are two different types of models. There is the 14″ notebook. These are for people that want a smaller machine, and something that is easily transportable. It is this size that would be given to students, and faculty (albeit, and upgraded model). Last, there is the 16″ notebook. This has additional storage options, and support for a numeric keypad. All systems will be running Kal-OS which is the nation’s preferred OS. You can learn more about Kal-OS by going to https://kal-os.kaldus.com. While the roots of Kal-OS is based off of Debian Linux, this will be a completely new, and different OS. Therefore, Linux app support will not be an option.
