Value business PCs for
companies focused on

managed transitions and chassis flexibility, in order to obtain an aggressive acquisition price, will find the
170L to be a good fit with their IT strategy.
The Ideal Solution for Basic Office Applications
Businesses looking for a reliable, managed, network ready PC that is ideally suited for basic office
applications such as e-mail, word processing, spreadsheets and Web browsing, will find the 170L to
be an excellent solution.
Whether you are in marketing, finance, sales or shipping, the 170L is the right tool for the job. From
developing your sales campaign to closing the books, the 170L stands ready to tackle your
application and get the job done.
