They are not claiming this as a high end device, It is just meant as a .pdf reader, presentation maker and for some other learning tools. I don't think it is not possible. Instead of shouting your hearts out, give applauds to their efforts I don’t know why you people are blaming so much for something that can change the face of educational sector.

They took monitors with them leaving CPUs behind. So that is state of computer literacy amongst our government officials. No surprise that Mr Arjun SIngh calls a storage device a laptop. I doubt the guy has ever seen a real laptop, a USB pen drive or a portable harddisk.
