Dell's Greener OptiPlex

dell_optiplex_755.jpg
Fresh off some healthy gains in server sales, Dell today unwrapped a new line of business desktops, the OptiPlex 755. The new machines aren't just Energy Star 4.0 compliant, they also scored a "Gold" EPEAT Rating. Sure, they claim to lower energy costs by 78, but it pays to read the fine print since they compare the 755's modern Celeron to a dated Pentium D, not to mention pitting an LCD against a CRT. Tsk, tsk.

Nonetheless, the other big selling point is improved remote management:

Dell is also integrating Intel vPro technology with advanced remote management features that help drive business efficiency. Customers now have the ability to manage systems that are powered down or have no operating system, reducing time spent on patch deployment by up to 94 percent and desk-side service visits by up to 56 percent.

Dell OptiPlex systems are available in three form factors -- Goldielocks-style. Prices technically start at $632, however, you can score one cheaper since the site spits up a price of $592 for me.

Wasting no time on those discounts!
