Bangalore, Apr 4: Wipro Infotech, in an attempt to bridge the digital divide in the country, today launched the 'SuperGenius Bharat PC', designed specifically for use in rural India.

SuperGenius Bharat PC was based on Intel's innovative PC platform that had been developed exclusively to meet the needs of villages and rural communities in the country.

Designed to define locally relevant computing solutions based on Intel technology, the Community PC platform was equipped to operate in a community setting, while accommodating the varying environmental conditions prevalent in the country, Wipro Infotech announced in a release here.

The hardware and software features of the Wipro SuperGenius Bharat PC differentiate it from the standard desktop PCs and make it an attractive platform for the rural environment.
