HP launches energy-efficient desktop PCs

HP India launched HP Compaq dc7800 ultra-slim desktop PC-an energy-efficient
business desktop PC, being the industry's first to feature a solid-state hard
drive (SSD), which offers improved reliability.

The new desktop PC includes a variety of environmental features that allows
it to meet environmental requirements of the Electronic Product Environmental
Assessment Tool (EPEAT) Gold registry. While using more power-efficient PCs can
help any business save on energy costs and reduce the environmental impact of
their technology, the effect across an enterprise environment can be immense.

The desktop PC's solid-state hard drive provides many performance and
durability improvements, including near instantaneous access to data and the
elimination of moving parts, which are the main cause of electro-mechanical wear
out. Additional benefits include a faster system start, better reliability,
improved power efficiency, shock improvement and a smaller overall footprint.

The dc7800 Ultra Slim Desktop is one of the industry's smallest,
enterprise-ready desktops-46 percent smaller than previous models. It is
available for Rs 40,000.
