-Oh, no! I’m out in the woods working, gathering data for my new project and I just dropped my tablet PC in a mud puddle. It must have been a rock somewhere in the puddle as well since the screen got a crack and the tablet isn’t working anymore. Why is this happening to me? Buying a new one will cost a lot of money and now when I see how easily it breaks, I know my company won’t be able to replace our tablets regularly.
-Don’t despair!
-What? Who said that?
-It’s me, Dell Technologies.
-Who are you and what are you doing here?
-Oh, I’m nobody really. Don’t mind me. I’m just the undisputed market leading end-to-end manufacturer of technology and IT infrastructure. I’m here to enlighten you.
-Wow! But what do you mean, Mr. Technologies?
-Please, just call me Dell.
-All right, Dell. Cool name! What are you going to tell me?
-Well, if you’re out in the woods a lot working, I would not recommend a regular laptop PC. If it starts to rain or if you accidently drop it, there’s a risk it will stop working.
-Tell me about it. Like mine just now.
-Yes, I saw that. I’m sorry your tablet stopped working.
-Thanks, Dell.
-Do you know what could have prevented it from breaking?
-No, tell me. I want to know.
-Have you heard about Dell rugged PC’s?
-No, what is that?
-A Dell rugged PC works like a normal PC, only the chassis and the construction inside is built to withstand certain amounts of water. Also, the rugged PC are being drop tested all from 90 cm to 180 cm. We also do vibration tests.
-Wow! So, if my tablet would have been a Dell rugged PC instead, it would not have stopped working when I dropped it in the mud puddle? And no crack in the screen?
-If your company had gotten you a Dell Rugged tablet to work with instead, there’s a very good chance it would be all fine now and you could have carried on working as if nothing had happened.
-This sounds fantastic, Dell! Really great. But this means a whole lot of other people would benefit from have Dell rugged PC as their working device, right?
-Yep, that’s right. The armed forced, field agencies, police, rescue personnel, energy companies, retail, forklifts, trucks, insurance companies, geological survey, marine sciences, oil and gas, transportation. Do you want me to go on?
-Haha, no need. I think I got it now. There are a whole range of businesses in all sorts of industries that would need a Dell rugged PC.
-That’s correct. They perhaps just don’t know it yet.
-Thank you so much, Dell. I will definitely talk to my manager about Dell rugged PC’s.
-Don’t forget to mention it to your colleagues as well.
-I will do that. But hey, I need to get back to my office now. See you soon, Mr. Dell Technologies.
-Yes, see you soon. Take care.
Dell Rugged – FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION
