Quad Core Servers, Workstations from Dell

Computer maker Dell wants to be the first out the door with server and workstation products based on Intel’s Quad-Core Xeon processors, and today the company introduced new PowerEdge servers and Precision workstations designed to satisfy the most processor-hungry applications&hellp;and users.

“Dell prides itself not only on being first to market with technology, but first to deliver exceptional value to the customer while helping to reduce costly complexity in their environment,” said Brad Anderson, Dell Product Group’ senior VP. “The introduction of quad-core processing enables us to guide customers more easily than ever to the benefits of a scale-out architecture, migrating from higher cost systems with four or more sockets used for enterprise applications to two socket systems with better price/performance and lower power consumption, and accelerating their ability to take advantage of this new technology for better business results now and in future growth.”

Best Buy to sell Musicland subsidiary

“We are working diligently to complete a sale of Musicland,” chief executive Brad Anderson said in a news release.

Anderson said Connie Furhman, executive vice president of Musicland, was promoted to president of the subsidiary to lead it during the transition. The company said it expected to report on Musicland’s status in June.

Best Buy, based in Minneapolis, is a leading retailer of consumer electronics, computers, entertainment software and appliances.

Earlier this month, the company said it was laying off 60 people as it reorganized its marketing and retail support departments. In January, Best Buy announced the closing of about 110 Sam Goody and Suncoast stores, citing a decline in sales of prerecorded music and the slowdown in mall traffic.
