The news that Michael Dell total squared mini computers has spread through the IT sphere. It was during a speech he made as he explained that customers who buy mini-computers become dissatisfied after one and a half days, because the screen is too small and of poor performance.
If you take a user who’s used to a 14- or 15-inch notebook and you say "Here’s a 10-inch netbook, they’re gonna say 'Hey, this is so fantastic. It’s so cute. It’s so light. I love it. Dell told Silicon Valley’s tech-obsessed Churchill Club during an appearance Tuesday night.' But about 36 hours later, they’re saying ‘The screen’s gonna have to go. Give me my 15-inch screen back."
I understand that this applies to some consumers.There are certainly those who buy a mini PC as it is cheap and cute, but misunderstand its purpose.A mini-computer is never a replacement for an ordinary computer. It is a complement. You will not be able to replace your ordinary notebook PC to a mini computer and think that you can use it like any other machine at any time.
Mini computer is slow and small
The performance is poor. The screen is small.But for its purpose, to be able to take your computer anywhere and be able to get an affordable PC that used to surf and send e-mail, is the mini-computer is an excellent choice. I have an Asus Eee PC 901 Go that I am extremely happy with. Sure, the keyboard and screen too small for me to work for long periods with it, but that's not why I bought it.I bought it because I do not always want to carry with me a standard laptop. When I sit on the train, or in a hotel room, in the passenger seat of a car, or the couch of a friend, then my little ultra-portable computer perfectly .
Dell mini computers in their catalog and they sell well by it. So why choose when Michael Dell to cut a product they actually sell a lot of?
Poor business selling mini-computers
The truth is that computer manufacturers are not fond of mini-computers. They want us to get real laptop instead, but since the demand for mini-computers are so big they can not help but sort of. Minicomputers, however, is not they earn any money.The profit margin for these computers is very small. They escape, after all, a lot of components, while the price tag is usually very low.Something else that computer manufacturers today earn big money is to send the software from third-party. This can include the image editing software, Office suite, antivirus, and so on. The problem with netbooks is that they have for the poor performance to be preloaded with, for example Adobe Photoshop Elements or a major security package. So there goes a hefty portion of their income.
The user does not understand the limitations of mini-computers do that they will encounter problems. And when they have problems call the support team - something that is far from free for manufacturers. If there was something more than the profit margins disappear guaranteed a good piece of cake to pay for support cases of various kinds.
Minidatorn in the future
So we will see mini-computers in the future? Yes, I am quite sure. But it shows where we are headed. When the first mini computer arrived, the Asus Eee PC 700 , low price tag of less than 3000 dollars. Today, the new mini-computers on the double. Sure, there are still cheap versions, but the mini-computer is getting ever better performance and increasing price tag .It will be interesting to see how the market evolves in 2010. The days of new snot cheap netbooks said to be over, but the very concept of the small ultra-portable PCs will continue to exist.
