To tackle notebooks stealing problems and to attract more customers Dell has initiated to offer a complimentary theft protection service for one year on some of its notebooks computers that can track, locate and recover stolen notebooks.
The model includes XPS M1210, M1710 and M2010.
This security system called Computrace LoJack is designed by Absolute Software company.
The software enables recovery teams or owners to track stolen laptop location via internet connection and can also assist to retrieve data if the notebooks are damaged.
But according to Dell’s website contents this offer applies to whole laptop lineup.
Hewlett Packard’s 510 laptops series are now available in the United States. The laptops come with 512MB of DDR2 memory and with 60GB 5400rpm hard drive. The cheaper Celeron model (RU961AA) incorporates combo drive, while the Pentium version (RX709AA) comes with DVD burner. Some HP 510 models are built upon Mobile Intel 915GM chipset, while others are based on 910GML chipset. Both chipsets provide Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900 with up to 128MB of shared system memory. The retail price for Celeron 1.4GHz and Pentium 2.13GHz configurations are $565 and $699 respectively.
Dell Inc. has confirmed that the company will soon offer notebooks with preinstalled Linux operating system.
Thousand of blog visitors voted that Dell should release computers that come equipped with Linux. The company has heard all the customers and will soon offer Linux powered Laptops.
Currently there is no news on the price of these machines, but many expect that they should be somewhat cheaper than Windows powered machines as Linux is a free OS and most of its applications also come free of charge.
What do you expect in a business laptop? Obviously, portability, reasonable price tag, up-to-the-minute innards, and superior connectivity options. Hewlett-Packard’s new Compaq 6515b and Compaq 6715b business notebook computers have all these features stuffed.
The 14.1-inch widescreen 6515b and the 15.4-inch widescreen 6715b are configurable with AMD Sempron and Turion processors, including 64-bit dual core Turion X2. Bothe the lappies boast 80GB to160GB hard disk drives, XP Pro to Vista Business, EV-DO or HSDPA 3G connectivity, ATI X1250 graphics, 802.11n WiFi, four USB ports, PC Card slot, and memory card reader.
Other than that, the machines will come with dual-layer DVD burners, including drives with LightScribe technology. The pricing start at $649, which I think will lure a number of customers.
