I think the Vosto 200 range is best for small business. Quad cores and massive storage are good but at the end of the day, a mid range core2duo will do all small business tasks. Large hard drives aren’t that important to small business. If you can only back up 10 GB online, why would you need a 500GB hard drive?
These 410s look good but they will have to be cheap to compete with the 200s. I’ll have a look when I can see them on the site.

Dell today announced the Energy Smart VostroTM 410 desktop, delivering industry-leading performance and expandability in a system designed exclusively for small businesses.

The Vostro 410 is available tomorrow in North and South America and the United Kingdom. It will be available to customers in Asia June 2 and the rest of Europe, the Middle East and Africa June 5.
“Small businesses are increasingly concerned about rising energy costs,” said Frank Muehleman, vice president and general manager, Dell Small and Medium Business. “With the Energy Smart Vostro desktop, we’re able to save our customers money and collectively cut down on CO2 emissions, while delivering the features and functionality they require - especially high-performance processing power, graphics technology, fast networking and maximum expandability.”
Direct customer feedback guided Dell to design and deliver the Vostro 410 desktop six months earlier in the product cycle than originally planned. Customer-driven enhancements include:

“The changes we’ve made to the Vostro 410 aren’t moderate improvements but an unrivaled combination of performance and expandability for a small-business PC,” said Muehleman. “For customers running complex spreadsheets or databases, multi-tasking frequently and heavily, or using video-intensive applications, you can’t beat the Vostro 410.”
In addition, Vostro customers can take advantage of Dell’s new services portfolio, ProSupport, which gives them the ability to customize and tailor services to fit their technical expertise and business needs. With growing demand for mobile technology among small businesses, Dell also recently announced its refreshed line of Vostro laptops.
To complement the Energy Smart Vostro 410, Dell announced today worldwide availability of its first EPEAT Gold-certified display – the E207 20-inch widescreen flat panel monitor. More than 25 percent of its plastics are made from recycled materials, plus flat panel monitors save customers up to 28 percent in annual energy costs when compared to using a boxier CRT monitor2. The E207 display starts at $259.
