Dell targets SMBs with laptops
By Tom Brewster,
Dell has introduced a range of laptops aimed at small businesses, with features designed to assist in virtual collaboration.
The Del Vostro 3000 series laptops come in 13, 14, 15 and 17-inch forms and all feature Intel 2nd generation Core I Series processors.
As for collaboration, Dell added voice enhancing technology SRS Premium Voice Pro software, whilst an HD webcam comes with the 14, 15 and 17-inch models.
The digital array mic aims to reduce ambient noise as well, adding to the clarity of communications.
Users will also be able to take advantage of any VoIP or video conferencing applications through a single customisable dashboard button featured on the laptops.
“Whether you are pitching, analysing, partnering or managing, the new Vostro 3000 series is designed to keep you collaborating with colleagues, partners and clients,” said Sam Burd, vice president of Dell’s consumer and SMB product group.
“With the latest Vostro collaboration enhancements, entrepreneurs have a sleek, capable technology tool that helps them impress no matter the size of their business or technology budget.”
To help with businesses’ data protection efforts, the laptops also come with a built-in finger-print reader and Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security software.
The 15-inch and 17-inch models have been made available online in the UK today, while the 13-inch and 14-inch will be on sale next week.
Excluding VAT, pricing is £449 for the 13-inch, £419 for the 14-inch, £399 for the 15-inch, and £449 for the 17-inch.
