			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>New in our portfolio, for the travelling professional: a pocket sized (pico) projector from the quality brand 3M. The 3M Mpro110 Micro Professional Projector, as it says on the box, projects presentations, files, photos and movies on any (white) surface of up to 46&#8243;, from the palm of your hand!</p>
<p>Running from an AC-adapter, or for up to one full hour of it&#8217;s internal battery, it accepts video from any VGA (it displays up to 640&#215;480 resolution though it accepts 1024&#215;786) or Composite video signal. That means your laptop, iPod, video recorder, etc&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://micacomputers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/3m-micro-projector-med.jpg" rel="lightbox[492]"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-497" title="3M Micro Professional Projector MPro110 - 2" src="http://micacomputers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/3m-micro-projector-med-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>Thanks to the fact that these micro projectors utilise a high-performance LED light as opposed to the common halogen lights, there&#8217;s hardly any heat generated during operation and the projected &#8216;lamp-life&#8217; is over 20,000 hours. By the time the lamp fails, this projector will be obsolete!</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re visiting travel shows carrying your laptop, off to convince a client on the benefits of your approach, why not carry your personal cinema with you! Come to our office for a quick demonstration and see if this is something for you&#8230;</p>

		<description><![CDATA[A special offer kicking off 2010; trade in your existing monitor and for an energy, space and money saving 17" TFT flat-screen for as little as TSH. 199,999/= only! Save more then half of the power consumption of each desktop, double the run-time of your UPS'es or inverter, save up to 80% of the space on your desk and reduce the production of heat. TFT flat-screens even last longer then conventional CRT displays. And now, with these refurbished quality screens from Dell, they are affordable for everyone!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://micacomputers.com/2010/01/trade-in-your-old-monitor/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-435" title="Trade in your monitor" src="http://micacomputers.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/dell-tft.png" alt="" width="640" height="309" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-432"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The screen in this offer has a display size of 17&#8243; which is comparable to a 19&#8243; conventional CRT monitor (*1). So what are the benefits of swapping your current screen for a modern TFT flat-screen?</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Reduce your electricity usage.</strong> In a set of a computer system and a 19&#8243; CRT monitor, the monitor alone can be good for half the total consumption. A 19&#8243; CRT monitor consumes in between 80 to 120 watts, a comparable 17&#8243; TFT flat-screen only uses 20W to 60 watts, reducing consumption by more then half! This results in<em> savings on your electricity bill</em> (*2) and an<em> increase of the running time of your UPS or inverter </em>in case of power failures. (read more in <a href="http://savingenergy.wordpress.com/2006/11/21/saving-energy-one-monitor-at-a-time/">this interesting article</a>)</li>
<li><strong>Reduce the office temperature.</strong> Reduced use of electricity means a reduced generation of heat, quite important in our Tanzanian climate. This creates a <em>better working atmosphere</em> and <em>reduces your A/C needs</em>.</li>
<li><strong>Increased desk-space.</strong> A 17&#8243; TFT flat-screen is up to 80% smaller then a 19&#8243; CRT monitor, giving you <em>more desk-space</em> and improving the ergonomics of the work place by putting <em>more distance between the eyes and the screen</em>.</li>
<li><strong>Longer life-span.</strong> A typical TFT screen has a life-span of 50,000 hours, as opposed to only 35,000 for conventional CRT screens.</li>
</ol>
<p>So why wait? With all these benefits, and a professional look for your office, you&#8217;ll be ready for the coming 10 years! Please note that we also stock very competitively priced complete refurbished systems from HP and Dell, and a wide range of new TFT flat-screens, from 17&#8243; to 21&#8243;.</p>
<p><em>Notes:</em></p>
<p>*1: When the size of a conventional, or &#8216;CRT&#8217; monitor is specified as 17&#8243; this does not reflect the true viewing surface since the sides of the glass display are hidden behind the plastic monitor cover. For TFT flat-screens however, the specified size is the true area available to the user. As a rule of thumb, a 15&#8243; TFT flat-screen compares to a 17&#8243; CRT monitor, and a 17&#8243; TFT flat-screen to a 19&#8243; CRT monitor.</p>
<p>*2: Each 19&#8243; CRT monitor will cost you, at current rates, between 17,000 and 21,000 shillings on electricity per year, as opposed to the 4,000 to 11,000 shillings of a TFT display.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mica Computer Services is proud to be able to offer quality, future proof refurbished hardware at very affordable prices! Refurbished, meaning second hand, imported and then fully cleaned, tested and inspected and ready for years of operation. Proving that second-hand does not mean second best, we are offering three combinations of a A-brand computers system with energy and space saving 15&#8243; TFT flat screens. These P4 machines fly when using Windows XP (or better, Ubuntu Linux), with ample memory, disk space and even a CD-(re)writer + DVD combo drive.</p>
<p>These powerful computers come fully licensed with Microsoft Windows XP Professional and are therefore completely ready for use. A perfect combination to expand your internet cafe or the computer science lab at your school! Why not drop by our shop and convince yourself?<span id="more-173"></span></p>
<h2>Option 1: HP-Compaq D220 + TFT = TSH. 470,000/=</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175" title="Compaq P4" src="/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/compaq-set.jpg" alt="Compaq P4" width="335" height="215" /></p>
<p><strong>Specifications: </strong><br />
Pentium 4, 2.4Ghz / 40Gb HD / 256Mb RAM / DVD-rom, CD-R/W combi drive, 15&#8243; TFT flat-screen</p>
<hr />
<h2>Option 2: DELL GX260 TOWER + TFT = TSH. 450,000/=</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-174" title="dell-set" src="/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dell-set.jpg" alt="dell-set" width="335" height="215" /></p>
<p><strong>Specifications: </strong><br />
Pentium 4, 2.2Ghz / 40Gb HD / 256Mb RAM / DVD-rom, CD-R/W combi drive, 15&#8243; TFT flat-screen</p>
<hr />
<h2>Option 3: COMPAQ PC + TFT = TSH. 3800,000/=</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-226" title="compaq small" src="/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/compaq-small.jpg" alt="compaq small" width="536" height="283" /></p>
<p><strong>Specifications: </strong><br />
Pentium 4, 1.5Ghz / 40Gb HD / 256Mb RAM / CD-R drive, 15&#8243; TFT flat-screen</p>
<hr />All three configurations give you years of problem-free operation, are built using standard components making service, repairs or upgrades very easy and thanks to the TFT display, they use very little power. Best way to get an even better idea of these machines is of-course to come to our shop where we&#8217;ve got all three configurations on display.</p>
<p>Karibu sana!</p>
