Lenovo has released a PC stick with an affordable price tag of $129.

Dubbed the Ideacentre stick 300. It measures only 15 mm and is powered by an Intel Atom Processor Z3735F.
It has 2Gb of memory , 32GB of storage and is designed for consumer usage in the home and on-the-go,.

In a statement Lenovo said that the pocket-sized compute stick is powerful enough for entertainment and web browsing, while affordable enough for existing PC owners to justify owning a second or third mobile PC option.

The plug and play technology turns any HDMI compatible TV or monitor into a fully functioning Windows-based PC. You need a 2.4GHz wireless keyboard and mouse of course because it does not run on telepathy.

It will initially ship with Windows 8.1 but will be available for a free upgrade to Windows 10 starting on July 29. Fully enabled with WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0, the ideacentre Stick 300 provides the connectivity you need to power up at any time.

Jun Ouyang, vice president and general manager, Worldwide Desktop and Visuals, Lenovo said that the company had looked at the computing needs of travellers, business people and families, and realized that a truly portable and affordable solution would be a significant benefit to users of all kinds.

"Our goal with the ideacentre Stick 300 is to give those users a sense of freedom and enhanced mobility, while packing a serious punch in a small device," he said.

The Lenovo ideacentre Stick 300 will be available on www.lenovo.com and will hit retail shelves starting in July.
