Dell is trying to make a new expansion into services a key part of its “Dell 2.0? business transformation effort. Read Ann’s insight into Dell’s SMB services strategy.

When I wrote about Dell’s SMB-oriented product lines in July, I noted that several experts stressed that Dell would also need to beef up its service offerings if it hoped to expand its SMB business.

Indeed, according to a recent Forbes article, Dell should focus narrowly on SMB services, as it really can’t hope to compete with IBM or HP for big service contracts with larger companies. Dell’s service business suffered an embarrassing setback in 2006 when Philips canceled a five-year deal in which Dell would have managed desktop PCs for 75,000 users.

This article explores the best way of
protecting computer equipment in factories, warehouses and other unstable
environments.

Not
everybody is fortunate to work in an air-conditioned office, many of us have to
endure warehouses and factory floors which can be dusty and grimy; often baking
in the summer and freezing during the winter and full of potential hazards.

Of course
our employers are at liberty to keep us protected. Overalls are provided to
keep our clothes clean, jackets to keep us warm while hard hats and toe
protection is now a legal requirement in many workplaces.

Since there is such danger in variable electrical current, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) have been developed to cover various types and levels of protection for electrical equipment. While these devices are still rather expensive, new developments have recently brought their cost within the reach of smaller companies and even some private residences.

The least expensive, but also least efficient, of the UPS systems is the “off-line” power back-up. These contain a storage battery that can produce the required voltage for a period of up to a half an hour. These units are directly plugged into the standard electrical system where they passively monitor the flow and can detect a power loss and activate within four to twenty-five milliseconds of detection.

A recent survey found that the majority of end users (60 percent) find enterprise applications somewhat difficult, very difficult or almost impossible to use, hampering employee productivity. Ann takes a look at the statistics and the plea that software needs to be business user friendly.

Back in October, a debate about enterprise software raged briefly throughout the blogosphere. Some folks said that enterprise software needed to be more user-friendly, like its consumer-oriented counterparts. Others said, in essence, business isn’t supposed to be fun, so get over it.
