BT Business Direct Launches New R-Series Toshiba laptops with Serious Power under the Hood

Toshiba’s latest business laptop offering is set to be a big hit at UK business IT and computing specialist BT Business Direct, thanks to its thin and light design, and incredible power and performance that can help workers on the move achieve more away from the office.

The new Toshiba R Series of laptops designed with business users in mind are the perfect fit for workers out of the office and ‘road warriors’ who need to touch base with head office and colleagues.

“For a long time laptop users have had to strike a balance between the power and productivity of a desktop machine and the portability and flexibility of a laptop computer. Now our customers can look forward to the best of both worlds,” said Jade Tomlinson, Laptop Category Manager at BT Business Direct.

“The R Series is the latest and undoubtedly best offering from Toshiba, a leading name in consumer technology and business laptops in particular.”

The laptop range has been designed to create the ideal mobile computing solution, containing powerful components including either Intel Core i3 or i5 processors, Intel HD Graphics 3000 and Windows 7 Professional. The specs of the machines reflect the fact that professionals will be using these Toshiba laptops on a day-to-day basis.

With the security of data and information being a key concern for all businesses, the R Series of laptops include fingerprint and smart card readers, coupled with Toshiba’s own EasyGuard management software which makes sure all data is kept safe and confidential, protecting businesses and employees.

All of this comes inside the ultra thin and light casing that includes screen sizes of 13.3″, 14″ or 15.6″ (dependant on model of laptop) with an outstanding battery life of up to 10 hours, meaning you won’t need to worry about your laptop imposing limits on you. “Unlimited productivity and performance” are the key impressions that BT Business Direct has gleaned from the R Series of laptops from Toshiba.

BT Business Direct now has a number of configurations available on the website at www.businessdirect.bt.com/ across four ranges: Satellite Pro R850, Tecra R850, Tecra R840 and Portege R830 with prices starting from £458.60 (ex VAT).

For users who multi-task on their computer, the SSDs are capable of providing uninterrupted access to data, allowing users to view images, listen to music and access large files all at the same time without experiencing a drop in performance. The 470 series drives allow users to work and play faster and smarter.

And anyone with a Samsung SSD won’t have to worry about making too much noise if they are working on the train or in a public space either. The devices emit virtually no noise or heat compared to traditional internal hard drives.

Duncan Rutherford, Product Manager at dabs.com said: “We are really excited to have begun stocking the Samsung 470 SSDs. It is a product that stands apart from the competition and is capable of delivering sustained performance and reliability.

BT Business Direct Recommends Companies Use HP’s ePrint Mobile Printing Solutions for Printing on the Move

UK Business computer and technology retailer, BT Business Direct, stocks a large range of ePrint enabled printer products from leading print manufacturer – HP, allowing users to print from any mobile device, wherever they are.

BT Business Direct, one of the UK’s leading business laptop and business printer providers has urged companies to consider the new range of LaserJet and OfficeJet printers that include HP’s innovative ePrint technology, providing total flexibility when it comes to printing documents.

The technology allows mobile workers to print from practically anywhere. Users can email the documents they wish to print directly from any computer or mobile device, as well as many popular smartphones including IOS, Blackberry and Nokia all of which have an HP ePrint app available.

The new printers address the concern that many businesses have that users need to be in the office or using a particular computer to be able to print documents, photos or charts. With ePrint you can get documents printed from anywhere at any time.

To ensure security, each printer is given an email address that is completely random and is not publicised in any way, ensuring only staff are able to send documents to a printer.

Nadine Roache, Category Manager at BT Business Direct was enthusiastic about the new HP ePrint solutions, commenting: “The new ePrint range of both OfficeJet and LaserJet printers have helped to address a common frustration that our customers have shared – not being able to print easily when out of the office.

“The ePrint system provides a number of options for users to send their documents to their printers whether it is via the ePrint software for PC or Mac, the dedicated smartphone app or by emailing the printer directly.
