Plasma technology: Sahara introduces complete, crisp offering

Johannesburg, 07 Sep 2004

'Plasma' is the latest buzzword revving up the digital lifestyle arena and technology manufacturers across the globe are jockeying for position to leverage off this market. Sahara Computers, a long-time supplier of digital equipment and lifestyle technology, has tailored its offering to suit the South African digital enthusiast with a solution that includes a 42-inch monitor, speakers, stand and TV tuner box.

"This immediately eliminates the need for consumers to go out and search for optional extras. Unlike many other suppliers, Sahara has incorporated these handy extras as part of its offering, with the idea to make the technology accessible and affordable," says Atul Gupta, MD of Sahara Computers.

The 42-inch monitor is a versatile addition to any digitally enhanced home theatre system. It can be used either as a standalone TV screen or as a PC monitor, incorporated into existing infrastructure.

"Either way, the user is assured the latest in display technology with superb picture and sound quality," adds Gupta. "The technology lends itself to this environment, users benefit from the fact that it is flat and presents a wide viewing angle, ideal for gaming systems and a host of other entertainment applications including DVDs."

Sahara has existing partnerships with several internationally recognised technology and digital solution vendors, and continues to concentrate on supplying product to the local digital lifestyle market.

"The ongoing convergence of multimedia product with PC infrastructure, which underpins the evolution of digital devices and entertainment product, provides an ideal platform upon which Sahara will continue to demonstrate its technical expertise and levels of service," Gupta concludes.

Advanced features for optimum performance include:

* 852X480 resolution
* High definition 42-inch wide screen, aspect ratio (16:9)
* High brightness, high contrast, and wide screen
* Slim, space-saving design (depth: only 86mm/ 3:4 inch)
