Information and communications technology products distributor in West Africa, Technology Distributions; and personal computers manufacturer, Dell Computers, are promoting Intel Core processors as processors to handle the complex data arising from the emerging information society.
The convergence of voice, video and data and recreation has placed enormous pressure on the PC in terms of how long it takes to execute specific assignments, TD said in a statement on Monday.
Speaking at a training for resellers, the Managing Director, Marketing, TD, Mrs. Chioma Chimere, said today’s multi-tasking requires a PC that aids clearing of desk in record time.
Intel Core, Chimere explained, is a brand name that Intel uses for various mid-range to high-end consumer and business microprocessors.
She said, “The Intel Core processors are more powerful variants of the same processors marketed as entry level Celeron and Pentium. The Intel i3, the Intel i5 and the Intel i7 are the three divisions that make up Intel’s Core brand: a collection of consumer-oriented processors, or central processing units, for desktop and laptop PCs.”
She explained that identical or more capable versions of Core processors were also sold as Xeon processors for the server and workstation market.
The TD marketing boss explained that generally referred to as the third generation Intel Core Processors, they guarantee speed and longer working hours. She listed the Dell Inspiron 5050 and Dell Latitude E5430 as systems with Intel Core i3 and Intel Core i5 processors respectively.
She urged the resellers to increase the market shares of the products based on the reputation of Dell as an original equipment manufacturer that brings products and services to a wide range of customers across all business segments – home, small and medium business, and for large enterprises.
She assured that the manufacturer’s warranty from Dell will be keenly executed to the delight of the customers.
It will be recalled that the TD Dell partnership was reached in December 2009, at which time the then TD Managing Director, Mrs. Chioma Ekeh, said it was natural that Dell should desire to gain respectable market shares in Nigeria and West Africa, riding on the platform of the major player status of TD.
