Dell is indeed innovative
Two exciting products that prove what Dell can do:
- The Dell Crystal Monitor: A 22-inch widescreen flat panel display made of ultra-clear tempered glass, with a 1680 x 1050 high-definition resolution and a 98% color gamut to reveal more shades and tones. It won the highest design honor at the Consumer Electronics Show, the CES Best of Innovations 2008. See it here.
- The XPS One: An all-in-one computer similar to the iMac, but Windows-based. It features an elegant display with built-in 2-megapixel webcam, integrated Hi-Def sound system, wireless keyboard and mouse, a smoked glass display base, a finished back, and a clean one-cord wire consolidation. See it here.
Dell is "a work in progress" and pointed out, "This is not a short-term fix and we are not in a short-term game."
The Vostro line of notebooks is not supposed to compete with the MacBook Air, but is a gutsy alternative for small businesses that want power and speed in a little package. A review at Laptop Magazine that awarded the Dell XPS M1330 its Editors' Choice designation and said it's "a remarkable notebook for a very reasonable price."
The review concludes: "So let's review: top-notch screen, keyboard, performance, design, portability, and features, all for under $2,000. Sure, it's not as thin as the MacBook Air or ThinkPad X300, but the XPS M1330 has more features than the former and a much lower price than the latter. This is the ultimate sweet-spot notebook for consumers."
Moreover, It spent $152 million on research and development last quarter, which is 7% higher than it was a year ago, so they're working on something.
Even without a technology breakthrough, however, the marginal changes taking place at Dell are good enough to keep earnings growing
