Hugo Chavez, the cartoonish, combative leader of Venezuela, wants to come out with his own PC that he will then distribute to citizens in the region, according to sources in the PC industry who have been contacted by Venezuelan officials.

The PCs would be part of Chavez's strategy of winning friends in the region through gifts paid for through Venezuela's oil industry.

Venezuela has been contacting companies in Asia about the project, said sources.
