IBM drives new PC technologies into Abu Dhabi market

Posted: 17 May 2004

Organisations across different sectors to learn about the latest IBM PC-based solutions that will place them at the forefront of new business technologies

IBM Middle East will introduce a range of its latest ‘ThinkVantage’ PC technologies at a one-day event taking place at the Beach Rotana Hotel & Towers in Abu Dhabi on the 23rd May. The ‘Think-Innovation for Business Advantages’ event will gather vertical sector organisations in Abu Dhabi to brief them on IBM’s latest PC-based solutions that offer unique manageability, security and wireless capabilities and address the changing needs of today’s business PC user.

“IBM's 'ThinkVantage’ technologies are helping organisations become more competitive by delivering innovative solutions and industry-leading capabilities that dramatically improve productivity and reduce costs,” said Sameh Farid, regional manager of personal computing division, IBM Middle East, Egypt and Pakistan. “IBM is helping Middle East organisations place themselves at the forefront of modern business technology by working closely with them, launching initiatives and holding events that explore the integration of information technology, mobile and wireless computing into business processes.”

IBM’s ThinkVantage technologies offer several unique advantages to PC users in the business environment. The Hard Disk Active Protection System, for example, is a patented hardware and software solution from IBM that dramatically reduces hard drive failures by avoiding full-induced system damage. The Rescue and Recovery with Rapid Restore helps users get back to business quickly by allowing them to recover from common problems such as software crashes, corruption on applications and viruses.

The ‘Think-Innovation for Business Advantage’ event will highlight IBM PC innovations designed to meet the growing needs of companies deploying e-business solutions like wireless networking, advanced security and application management.

The event will also have an overview of IBM’s software porfolio and a special focus on the xSeries range of eServers and their unique Enterprise X-Architecture, which has revolutionised the Intel server marketplace. Intel will also be giving a presentation on its Centrino mobile technology and Hyper-threading architecture that is incorporated into most IBM ThinkPad notebooks and ThinkCentre desktops.

IBM, the world's largest IT company, has helped customers innovate for business advantage for more than 80 years.

With ThinkPad notebooks, ThinkCentre desktops, and ThinkVantage Technologies, IBM personal computing solutions address today's business needs.

These include reducing IT management costs, increasing systems uptime, improving security and enabling wireless solutions.
