President of Dell ’s newly created consumer, small and medium business said on Tuesday to the news agency over a telephonic interview, “You will see acquisitions from us.”

He also added further in the interview, “They’ll be pointed toward the strategy that we have as a company and one of those key strategies is increasing the solutions so that we can be the best-value solution provider to customers.” He mentioned that Dell was basically looking at the key areas like the systems management and also the security.

President said, “Because of the great cash performance of the company, we ended the last quarter with approximately $11 billion in cash. So… we really have little limitation in what we can do and so it’s just going to come down to the return that we can get and how that meets our profile for delivering good returns to our shareholders.”

In 2009 the company bought Perot Systems, the technology services provider, for $3.9 billion. This was the largest ever acquisition of Dell in order to expand the technology services business and also to compete with giants like Hewlett-Packard Co. and IBM.

Dell, from the sale of personal computers generates over half of its revenue. Now it has diversified itself from PC to higher margin businesses like technology services. This was because the profit margin of the company was hurt drastically by the sales of lower-priced PCs.

Dell computers also competes with Acer and Lenovo. Last month the company said that it is focusing on the improvement of profit in the consumer business, which had hurt the overall gross margin performance of the company.

Dell launches a mobile phone

On January 8, 2010, in News, by

Dell Computers CEO Michael Dell was on hand to show off a raft of new products to try and recapture market share lost to Acer and HP last year. As expected the company concentrated on notebooks.

Introducing Intel Core i3 and i5 processor based models throughout the Inspiron line with “immediate availability” and sporting 14, 15 and 17-inch screen sizes and a rainbow of colours, Dell hopes these units will revitalise its mainstream offerings. Aside from the new CPUs, graphics will mostly be powered by the Mobility Radeon HD4330 from ATI. It’s pretty standard issue after that with units already available at the Dell Store.

Dell also took the opportunity to beef up its Mini 10 netbook. The device will now sport a “high definition” display with high-def acceleration. Continuing with the entertainment theme, the Dell Mini 10 will have a built-in digital TV tuner. Should you wish to output this to a screen bigger than 10-inch then Displayport connectivity is provided.

dell-phone-009The final act in this notebook fest was the Alienware M11x, a gaming noteboook with an 11.6-inch screen. What was interesting was the admission of concentration on graphics power over CPU processing heft in the M11x design. 35W of the total thermal output will be from the Nvidia GT335m chip. As is popular these days, two GPUs are present allowing for what Dell says is over six hours of battery life on the integrated graphics and just over two hours when the discrete chip is enabled. Switching between the two will not require a reboot. Thankfully HDMI output is provided so you don’t have to game on a screen size that hasn’t been used by gamers since the early 90s. Availability will be Spring 2010 and prices are expected to be just under $1,000.

As an “and finally”, Michael Dell decided to empty his pockets and reveal some interesting pieces including a fully working slate device as well as the Dell Mini 3i mobile phone running Android. The Dell Mini 3i smartphone will be sold over in the US on the AT&T network with Dell saying it’s keen to support operator services, meaning there might not be an unlocked, contract free version of the Dell Mini 3i handset at launch.

Dell’s previous foray into the PDA market was with the Axim which didn’t really do that well so it’ll be interesting to see how Dell markets the Mini 3i differently.

Can the Dell’s new Inspirons stop its slide down the PC market share rankings in 2010? Well, we didn’t see anything that blew our socks off.
