Dell Enterprise Laptop Standards
LockedAll,
I’m looking for input from the Medium and Large Business admins regarding their current Laptop Standards.
My company is standardized Dell, so I’d prefer those, but any input would be greatly appreciated.I’ve been buying E6400 or E6500 series with the following, but I’m getting serious push back from upper management:
Windows 7 Pro (we skipped Vista, but are finding it almost impossible to continue to work with XP – we’ve been piloting 7 since beta last January and have had virtually no issues)2.80 GHz (for the 6M L2 cache)
3 GB RAM
WXGA+
NVS 160M
160GB encrypted drive
9 cell battery (I find the 6 cell to be too short lived)
Additional power brick
UPEK biometric reader
Backlight keyboard
Integrated webcam
e-Dock Port Plus (for potential dual monitor users)
19″ to 22″ Ultrasharp Widescreen LCD panel
3yr 24*7 NBD IT PRO Support
