Dell's Green Small Business Desktop

Dell Vostro 410

Dell just rolled out the new Vostro 410 desktop aimed at the small business market, six months earlier than it planned and filled with energy saving goodness. Packing a Intel Core 2 Duo Quad processor, the computer saves companies "47 percent in annual energy cost" using the machine's Energy Star settings according to the company.

Prices start at $599. That configuration gets you a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 processor, 1 GB of RAM, 80 GB SATA hard drive, a 128MB ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro graphics card, integrated 1 GbE networking and Windows XP Home. Perhaps the nicest nod to business users, besides expansion ports aplenty, is the inclusion of ZERO crapware!

Joining the Vostro 410 is the just-released EPEAT Gold-certified, E207 20-inch widescreen LCD, which costs $259. Dell says it saves users 28 percent in energy costs compared to CRTs, which is a silly comparison since you'd be hard-pressed to find a CRT monitor these days for general business use. Dell's own SMB store sells just twelve, most of them falling into specialty category.

You can catch a video of Mike Blood, head of Vostro product line, explaining the new PC here.
