Dell Claims New OptiPlexx 755 Is World's Most Energy Efficient Commercial Desktop Ever, Attains Gold EPEAT Rating and Energy Star 4.0 Compliance
The OptiPlex 755 will help simplify IT by reducing the number of desk side service visits required for system service and maintenance. Dell is also integrating Intel vPro technology with advanced remote management features that help drive business efficiency. Customers now have the ability to manage systems that are powered down or have no operating system, reducing time spent on patch deployment by up to 94 percent and desk-side service visits by up to 56 percent.1
When desk-side visits are necessary, the number of steps required to remove and replace components on OptiPlex systems can be up to half that of similar Hewlett Packard desktops.
The OptiPlex 755 is available with Energy Smart power settings that can lower energy costs by up to 78 percent.2
Dell is also helping commercial customers who purchase new systems to further reduce their emission footprint associated with electricity used to power IT equipment with its "Plant a Tree for Me" program. Donations to the program support The Conservation Fund and Carbonfund.org, two non-profit partners of Dell that plant trees in sustainably managed reforestation projects.
Dell’s ImageDirect service, available in the United States, is an industry-first service with 12 patents-pending that can reduce the number of software images customers are required to manage in their client environments. It allows customers to create a single master image in up to nine languages with organization-wide applications that can be customized according to departmental needs. When a change is made to the master image, it is made to all. The service can decrease image maintenance cost and speeds time-to-deployment of new systems.
The OptiPlex 755 is available today and starts at $632. For more information, visit www.dell.com/vpro. For details on Dell’s energy-saving strategy, visit

Environmental Valuation & Cost-Benefit News
Environmental Valuation & Cost Benefit News covers legal, academic, and regulatory developments pertaining to the valuation of environmental amenities and disamenities, such as clean air, trees, parks, congestion, and noise. We apprise the reader about ways in which costs and benefits are measured, and the results of empirical studies. We hope that this information will allow public and private organizations to comprehend the risks and benefits of various actions, help disputants to resolve conflicts equitably and efficiently, and improve the quality of public policies. We will only discuss issues related to the empirical quantification of private and social costs and benefits and damages, and summarize information from daily newspapers, academic journals, legal publications, court decisions, professional newsletters commissioned studies, and on-line services. This newsletter is dedicated to the principal that all policies place values upon life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We believe that more information, explicit specification of assumptions, and rigorous analysis can help our society to better meet these ends. This site will increasingly serve, in conjunction with others, as a valuation database. We will include a wide range of studies, including non-environmental reports, because omission of a factor effectively values it at zero, and biases decisions. Heavy traffic has caused several site crashes. We are attempting to correct these problems. Apologies for any inconvenience.
