“Dell Latitude Ultrabooks not only meet our needs, but Dell exceeded our expectations with the time and money we saved using Dell’s Managed Deployment Services. When we decided to transition to a new ‘Activity Based Working Environment’ without fixed desks and a more agile staff, we needed to replace our old desktops and laptops with a lightweight, portable solution that gives staff access to applications and data on demand, and fits the cutting edge design of our new building. Originally, we looked at traditional laptops, but we were so impressed with the design, build quality, size, weight and performance of the Dell Latitude 6430u Ultrabooks that we replaced our entire fleet of computers with these systems instead.” – David Jackson, Manager Information Technology at Cardinia Shire Council in Australia.
