Dell today announced its redesigned Vostro notebook line for small businesses, which are thinner and lighter than previous generation Vostro notebooks. The new line includes 13.3" Vostro 1310 starting at $749 and 15.4" Vostro 1510 starting at $599.
Dell says the new notebooks feature enhanced security options such as fingerprint readers, Trusted Platform Module 1.2, cable lock slot and factory-installed security software. The notebooks are fitted with only the software you need, so there is no trialware preinstalled. Dell also offers free services including 10GB of Dell DataSafe Online Backup, Network Assistant and PC TuneUp.
Both notebooks come with Intel Core 2 Duo processor, up to 4GB of system memory, a slot-load optical drive, as well as with Windows XP or Windows Vista preinstalled.
Products are available today in Europe, Middle East and Africa, followed by North and South America May 1, and Asia Pacific and Japan May 5.
The company will also offer a redesigned 17" Vostro 1710 notebooks in mid May.
