The company said it will offer customers a range of Dell computers preconfigured from the factory with Arkona client software. It will also provide automobile dealers with products from manufacturers including Hewlett-Packard, Lexmark, Okidata, Cisco and SonicWall through agreements with technology distributors Alternative Technology and Tech Data.

David Jenkins, vice president of marketing at Arkona, said: In addition to reducing the time and complexity of configuring PCs, dealers can now avail themselves of a single shop alternative by acquiring all their technology needs directly from Arkona and at better prices.
