Lenovo Unwraps Latest Business-Ready Desktops

Lenovo announced the ThinkCentre M71z all-in-one (AIO) desktop designed for large businesses, schools and governments and the ThinkCentre M71e, an entry-level desktop to give mainstream corporate offices the technologies they need to conduct business productively, securely and reliably every day.

 

The new AIO boasts a variety of performance features, from fast boot up to the latest second generation Intel® Core™ processor family, interactive touchscreen options and advanced video conferencing features, while the desktop features 2nd generation Intel® Core™ processors, rapid boot up and security authentication features.

 

“We’re seeing more and more business customers embrace all-in-one desktops for their space savings, portability and style benefits,” said Jeerawut Wongpimonporn, Country General Manager, Lenovo Thailand. “We’ve built the ThinkCentre M71z and ThinkCentre M71e to go beyond these advantages and give any business that needs it the highest levels of desktop performance. There is no compromise yet they come at an affordable price point for growing businesses.”

 

Unlimited Performance All in One

As part of Lenovo’s Enhanced Experience 2.0 program[i], the fast-booting ThinkCentre M71z starts up in as little as 15 seconds on select models with an optional solid state drive (SSD). The M71z includes choices of powerful second generation Intel® Core™ processors, rapid DDR3 memory, up to 1 TB hard drive storage or a ultrafast 160 GB SSD.  

 

The ThinkCentre M71z’s 20-inch display is an ideal screen size for doing work with the added convenience and cost savings of a two-in-one device compared with desktops and monitor solutions sold separately. Additionally, the desktop’s optional touchscreen makes collaboration with colleagues or clients more natural. The AIO includes a number of extra productivity and security features, such as a DVD burner, optional WiFi, six USB ports, chassis intrusion switch and DisplayPort for viewing digital video on a second monitor.

 

Since more voice and video calls have moved online, the ThinkCentre M71z offers an optional 2.0 megapixel camera for clear visuals and a digital array microphone for crisp voice clarity. Users can quickly change camera and microphone settings on the fly during a call in the ThinkVantage Communications Utility. Finally, the ThinkCentre M71z AIO gives users flexibility in how they like to work with their PC by allowing universal Vesa wall or desk arm mounting or an optional height adjustable stand.

 

Confident Desktop Performance

The ThinkCentre M71e desktop caters to large companies seeking a PC to keep its workforce productive and secure. Imagine starting the desktop and beginning work in less than 15 seconds. With Lenovo’s Enhanced Experience 2.0 capability, office professionals can do just that. Add to this capability, processors up to Intel® Core™ i7, and employees can now work the way they want to, multitasking among several applications. Additionally, the desktop’s View Management Utility and Password Manager Software to manage passwords for encrypted drives give workers a securable and reliable machine. The desktop also supports up to four individual monitors for working with lots of visual information. The desktop also meets ENERGY STAR guidelines and U.S. EPEAT Gold specifications[ii] to help reduce costs through efficient power consumption. 

 

Gold Standard for Green

ThinkCentre desktops incorporate several significant environmental attributes: They use a significant amount of recycled content in chassis materials. They include power supply units that surpass Energy Star 5.2 efficiency requirements, and they are EPEAT Gold rated and TCO Certified Edge for their strong environmental and usability features.
