Motorola, Armani and GAP have already done it. And now it comes to laptops. Dell Corporation together with Microsoft has started a new campaign to help fight AIDS in Africa.

New series of Dell products will feature the now famous and fashionable RED logo, powered by Windows Vista Ultimate RED Edition. Every sale of a PC or a laptop will benefit £25-40£ to the Global Fund to help combat AIDS in Africa.

The laptops will have a distinctive red casing and the Windows interface will feature a red background and sidebar.

“My job is to put some poetry in the machine, put some funk in the machines,” Bono, singer of U2 and a co-founder of (RED) said in an interview with Reuters.

The RED Dell products will be sold at the same price as regular Dell laptops.
