Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba.com and Intel plan to jointly develop a computer designed to get small and medium-sized Chinese businesses online, the companies said this week. The planned computer, the first step in a broader alliance between the two companies, will come with Alibaba's e-commerce applications preinstalled and use Intel components, according to a joint statement. <\/p>\n

The statement did not detail which Intel components would be used in the PC, but one likely candidate is the company's upcoming Atom processor, due to be launched next month. Formerly called Diamondville, Atom was designed for low-cost laptops but will also be used in a crop of low-cost desktops. These desktops, which Intel calls nettops, are basic systems designed to be inexpensive and used for Internet applications, a description that neatly fits the announced objectives of Intel and Alibaba.
