Five new Dell "bundles" available through CCS site
June 2007
Customers looking to buy a desktop or laptop that will be supported by BSDIS can now choose between five new "bundles" (computer + monitor combos), available from CCS and Dell.
The five models are a mix of desktop and laptop computers, and range from cheaper "bare bones" systems to more powerful machines.
All the new bundles come with Windows Vista installed, but once the PCs arrive, BSDIS will re-build them with Windows XP to avoid issues related to Vista's incompatibility with BSD systems.
All bundles also include a 3-year onsite warranty.
Detailed specifications are available on our purchasing page and the CCS site, but the basic profiles of each machine are as follows:
STD USFF 745
Ultra Small Form Factor PC for our customers with limited desk space who still want great performance.
STD 745 Minitower
Standard Minitower PC; great for labs that need flexibility.
STD 320 Bare Bones
For our customers on a budget who already have a working monitor and just need to upgrade their computer.
STD D630 Laptop
For people who have a desktop but need a laptop for travel or shared office use, or just don't want to use a monitor.
STD D630 Desktop Replacement
For our customers who want the desktop experience in their office but also travel and work from home.
Featured models aside, BSDIS is pleased to consult with departments on purchases and help find an Optiplex, Latitude, (or Mac!) that will fit their needs.
