Why Replace Your PCs?
"Good enough."

If that's how you characterize the older desktop and notebook PCs deployed throughout your infrastructure, those systems may be costing more than you think. When you factor in security risks, high maintenance costs and reduced productivity, refreshing your aging PC base could actually save you time and money — important business goals in any economic climate.

Even in times of tight budgets, replacing your desktop PCs every three years and notebook systems every two years can simplify management, reduce security risk, and meet business demands for increased productivity. It's a sound investment that pays immediate — and potentially significant — dividends across your enterprise.

Replace Aging Desktop PCs with Notebook PCs

Wireless mobility transforms the workday by giving employees new ways to stay productive and efficient as they move through fast-paced days, both in and out of the office. Intel® Centrino® Processor Technology² is designed to help your business fully realize the benefits of wireless mobility. It's the first architected CPUchipset, and wireless LAN from Intel designed from the ground up to deliver the benefits of mobility that matter to enterprises like yours — namely enhanced employee productivity, lower total cost of ownership, and longer platform stability.

Powerful PCs Combat Rising Security Threats

Powerful client PCs based on the latest Intel processors enable multitasking performance, allowing your business to run continuous virus scanning and file encryption programs in the background with minimal end-user disruption. Migration to newer operating systems supports stronger security, including added VPN for tunneling, support for Kerberos authentication, and built-in smart card support for more defensible authentication and authorization.

Fuel Greater Productivity with High-Performance PCs

Increased demand on client foreground and background processing means more time waiting and less time working. But new PCs based on the latest Intel processors can provide the performance users need to become more productive than ever. In addition to outstanding performance, Hyper-Threading Technology¹, available for desktop and notebook PCs, enables simultaneous processing of two sets of tasks — producing performance gains of up to 25 percent.

Simplify Your Environment and Reduce TCO

Aging PCs running older operating systems and applications often cost more to own and manage than newer platforms. Migrating to new client PC platforms and operating systems produces measurable cost savings, reduces environmental complexity, and helps companies avoid future large-scale upgrades. In addition to cost savings, a regular PC refresh cycle reduces the number of images across the environment, and a stable platform means fewer requalifications.
