Another Market Blog

As a beginning investor, I'm creating this blog as an observation of the market and things that I observe while watching the market develop. I do not make product recommendations or investment recommendations but simply comment on what I see happening in the market.

As of late, the market has jumped up and down all over the place. The price of oil is down the greatest amount of any month in history and this is greatly a result of speculation and also a shrinking demand for oil.

Another interesting item that I saw today was a computer that Dell is coming out with that smaller and lighter weight and comes in a stylish box. Usually I'm pretty much just a Mac guy who never has any interest in PCs. However, looking at this product, I find it very appealing in many respects. It is a very small tower but is not a tower that I would mind having out in the living room next to the coffee table. It could easily fit into a TV or entertainment center.

It’s clear that form as well as function was top of mind with Dell’s new Studio Hybrid desktop PCs. As the smallest that Dell has ever brought to market, the computers employ funky and curvaceous styling, along with six bold colour choices.

“The design and craftsmanship of the Studio Hybrid alone are enough to cause you to do a double take,” said Phil Bryant, Vice President and General Manager, Americas Consumer Sales, Dell Inc.

At about 80 per cent smaller than a typical desktop tower, the Studio Hybrid PC can easily be positioned in any space, either vertically or horizontally. In addition to being small in size, Dell says that it also consumes up to 70 per cent less energy than other desktop units.
