SP 4000 Notebook from Nexlink

The SP 4000 Notebook from Nexlink means BUSINESS

When buying a new or replacement notebook for your business, you may turn to Dell, HP, Lenovo, or Toshiba for trusted and reliable products, that is why we are partners with and offer these fine brands! However, there are some outstanding alternatives which may be of interest to your company.

First, let’s discuss the difference between a computer designed for consumers and one designed specifically for business. The most notable difference is that a computer purchased for home use will come loaded with Microsoft Windows 7 Home (either basic or premium), which will not allow your shiny new computer to join a corporate domain. The business computer will have Microsoft Windows 7 Professional loaded on it, which supports all domain functions required to associate with your corporate domain. You *can* upgrade a Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium computer to have the Professional or even Ultimate version of the operating system on it, but you will spend additional money and additional time doing so.

Lastly, the hardware design of the business computer may and likely does incorporate higher quality components, such as hard drive, displays, cooling fans, and even power supplies, which are designed with longer duty cycles in mind. The “duty cycle” is the amount of time the computer may be used. Typically a business computer will be on 24/7, or at the very least, from 8AM to 5PM Monday through Friday, while a home or consumer based system may see only a couple hours a day. A manufacturer will want to design their business based computer to outlast their warranty period for a computer that is on continuously. In the case of notebooks, a business notebook may be more robustly built to handle the abuse that a typical worker inflicts upon their systems.

What does this mean for you and your business? Simply stated, putting a computer built for home use to work at your company will function, but will it provide the user experience and the longevity of a system designed specifically for that purpose? In our experience, the odds are 50/50, and those are not enough in our favor to attempt, so we always recommend a system built for the job.

The downside to purchasing business computer systems is that the upfront costs are going to be higher. To offset some of that, you may wish to look into alternative business systems instead of the mainstream brands.

  1. Well said!!

    This post clearly conveys the subtle differences between consumer and enterprise grade product.

    Understanding your needs as it relates to hardware and support is critical in making a wise purchase…initial price is only one small factor to consider.

    More importantly, choosing an IT partner like Homeland is your best decision long term.

    Thanks for the post

  2. Matt,

    You obviously represent a company who cares, otherwise you wouldn’t have found my little blog post and taken the time to make a reply!

    We have nothing but good to say about the entire Seneca Data product line, from your desktops to notebooks to servers. Never a bad experience, and nothing but smiles from our clients because they get a high quality product at a reasonable price!

    In the very rare event we have had issues with a Nexlink system, a quick phone call resolves it! No eternal hold queue, no translator needed.

    It is no wonder your company ranks so highly with customer satisfaction… Keep up the great work!

    John
