410 desktop, delivering industry-leading performance and expandability in a
system designed exclusively for small businesses. The latest in a series of

blog.
The Vostro 410
is immediately available to customers in Asia on June 2 and the rest of Europe,
the Middle East and Africa on June 5. "Small
businesses are increasingly concerned about rising energy costs," said Saleh
Haji Munshi, General Manager, SMB, Dell APACS. "With the Energy Smart Vostro
desktop, we're able to save our customers money and collectively cut down on CO2
emissions, while delivering the features and functionality they require -
especially high-performance processing power, graphics technology, fast
networking and maximum expandability."

Direct
customer feedback guided Dell to design and deliver the Vostro 410 desktop six
months earlier in the product cycle than originally planned. Customer-driven
enhancements include:
Outstanding desktop performance with Intel®
Core2 Quad processors, an optional 512MB graphics card and 800MHz system
memory;
A larger "tower" design to allow the desktop to
grow according to business needs with space for up to four hard drives vs. two
in the Vostro 400 and up to 3TB of local storage and 4GB of memory;
More expansion slots (six vs. standard four) and
bays (four vs. standard three), holding up to six cards (3 PCI & 3 PCIe) to increase
configuration flexibility;
Gigabit Ethernet for fast wired network access;
Continuation of Dell's 14-day worry-free return
policy; and
Available with no trial ware and services
including Dell Network Assistant (free) and Dell Automated PC TuneUp (at a
fee).
"The changes
we've made to the Vostro 410 aren't moderate improvements but an unrivaled
combination of performance and expandability for a small-business PC," said Saleh.
"For customers running complex spreadsheets or databases, multi-tasking
frequently and heavily, or using video-intensive applications, you can't beat
the Vostro 410."
In addition,
Vostro customers can take advantage of Dell's new services portfolio, ProSupport,
which gives them the ability to customize and tailor services to fit their
technical expertise and business needs. With
growing demand for mobile technology among small businesses, Dell also recently
announced its refreshed line of Vostro
laptops.
To complement
the Energy Smart Vostro 410, Dell announced today, worldwide availability of
its first EPEAT
Gold-certified display - the E207WFP
20-inch widescreen flat panel monitor. More than 25 percent of its plastics
are made from recycled materials, plus flat panel monitors save customers up to
28 percent in annual energy costs when compared to using a boxier CRT monitor².
Dell's Commitment to the ReGeneration
On World
Environment Day 2007, Dell announced it would partner with the
ReGeneration -
people of all ages who care about the environment - to become the "greenest"
technology company on the planet. The company has since pledged to become the first in its
industry to neutralize the carbon impact of worldwide operations by the end of
2008.
Dell
offers the industry's only free recycling program for consumers and an
award-winning suite of asset recovery services for businesses. Launched in
January 2007, Dell's "Plant a Tree for Me" program helps customers offset the CO2 emissions related to their use of IT
products.
Expanded to corporate partners in September 2007, "Plant
a Forest for Me"
enables organizations worldwide to share best practices and facilitate the
planting of trees in sustainable managed reforestation projects.
