U.S. Army buys 80,000 Armada portables
22 January 2001 10:45 AM CST
PricewaterhouseCoopers, which recently won a three-year, $450 million contract to design and deploy a distance learning solution for the U.S. Army, has selected Compaq over IBM to provide all of the PC technology for the project. The result is a three-year deployment of 80,000 Armada M1200 portable PCs valued at $100 million.
Closed in December, the deal provides soldier-students with a laptop, carrying case, printer, accessories, warranty and repair, Internet access, e-mail account and technical support services. |
