Microsoft Office 2016 prices in Namibia

Microsoft Office 2016 microsoft office 2016 prices in namibia Microsoft Office 2016 prices in Namibia microsoft office 2016

Microsoft Office 2016 has been out for a little while now in Namibia. In the month since Microsoft did the full-press release for all supported operating systems, we’ve had the opportunity to sit down with this latest edition to the Office family. There is quite a bit to get excited about.

Office 2016 Product Information
In terms of new Office features, one of the first things you’re going to notice is how colorful everything has seemingly become. This has been the design direction Microsoft has been moving towards for the past few years, so it makes sense that the latest Office would reflect this mindset.

When it comes to Office 2016 features, collaboration/partnership is definitely the name of the game.

The emphasis on easy collaborating and business intelligence is obvious right from the get-go. One of the first things you’re going to notice with this latest version is the fact that Microsoft is continuing to develop products that offer a variety of cloud possibilities. Yet at the same time, the newest Office release is very decidedly grounded in remaining something that is best used with a Mac or Windows OS, coupled with the traditional keyboard/mouse combo.

Windows users will want to note that this latest Office release offers the opportunity to create/open/edit/save your file in your cloud, right from your desktop. The ability to co-author projects in real-time through Office Online is also something that is worth getting excited about. The “Tell Me” feature, which is a new search function for commands that can be found in Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.

You can also utilize Bing to get information straight from the internet. The Mac version of Office 2016 is also worth getting excited about, as it comes packed with a huge assortment of features that are going to be totally unique for Mac users. It would seem as though Microsoft is finally giving Mac fans the Office product they’ve always wanted.

In terms of cloud vs. standalone, it’s worth noting that purchasing the standalone will give you the ability to take advantage of the cloud component. Standalone versions can be purchased for N$ 1645 (Home and Student), N$ 3785 (Home and Business), or N$ 6035 (Professional). Keep in mind features you require.

Microsoft Office 2016

Standalone/Offline Editions

Price Installation Applications Included
Office Home and Student N$ 1645 1 PC or Mac Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote
Office Home and Business N$ 3785 1 PC or Mac Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook

Impact of West Africa cable system (WACS) on Namibia

The West Africa Cable System (WACS) is a cable system connecting West Africa with the United Kingdom. WACS is a submarine cable system designed to bring a broadband internet connection to various parts of West and South Africa via the United Kingdom.

Constructions

The cable system is made up of four fibre pairs that stretch a total length of over 14484 Kilometers. Along the length of the cable network are 14 landing points to connect to the system.

  1. South Africa, Western Cape, Yzerfontein
  2. Namibia, Swakopmund
  3. Angola, Sangano near Luanda
  4. Democratic Republic of Congo, Muanda
  5. Republic of Congo, Matombi near Pointe Noire
  6. Cameroon, Limbe, near Douala
  7. Nigeria, Lekki, near Lagos
  8. Togo, Afidenyigba near Lomé
  9. Ghana, Nungua near Accra
  10. Ivory Coast, Abidjan
  11. Cape Verde, Palmarejo near Praia
  12. Canary Islands, Telde(el Goro) near Las Palmas
  13. Portugal, Sesimbra near Seixal
  14. United Kingdom, Brean near Highbridge

Of these points, 12 of them reside in Africa with 2 of them located in Europe. Additionally the WACS uses a revolutionary two conductor set up consisting of two connections from Europe to West Africa and West Africa to South Africa. This system cuts down on the total voltage needed to operate compared to the traditional single conductor set up.

Impact

The overall impact of the WACS is that it will provide affordable, functional  and fast internet to many parts of Namibia and other African countries. These locations originally were serviced with minimal internet capability at best and none at worst. Another major impact is that there are many different companies and even some governments that all own a share of the WACS connection. This means that they have a certain percentage claim on the amount of traffic run though the cable system. This allows them to offer better connectivity and greater access to the goods and services available on the internet.

Economy

As mentioned above, many different companies and governments have invested various amounts of money into the construction and maintenance of the WACS project. This means that part of the upkeep and repair of the WACS falls onto the shoulders of these individuals in exchange for being allowed to use the cable network. For instance MTN Group invested around N$1 billion towards the construction of the cable granting them an 11% share of the cables capacity. Additionally these companies will further boost the economies in their area as more people will be needed to operate and maintain their share of the WACS but also to maximize their individual share of the cable network for either commercial or person use.Impact of West Africa cable system (WACS) on Namibia

What To Expect From Microsoft Office 2016

There is no question that in terms of updates, improvements, and new features, the latest incarnation of Microsoft Office 2016 is going to swing for the fences. Is Office 2016 going to be available for Mac? What are the new Microsoft Office 2016 features going to be? How smooth will the software move between your PC and your mobile device?

All of these are excellent questions to ask. Thankfully, we already know the answers to most of those questions.

 

Microsoft Office 2016 Features

One of the main things you’re going to need to keep in mind with Office 2016 is that even in terms of the way it has been designed, things are going to be very, very different. For the first time ever, Microsoft is making it clear that the latest incarnation of Office is being designed with a cloud-first/mobile-first mentality. In fact, it would seem that in terms of Microsoft Office 2016 and Office 365, the Office 2016 is going to have a significantly diminished role, when compared to what Microsoft hopes to achieve with 365.

By far, one of the most exciting elements about Office 2016 is the fact that it is going to be made available for the Mac. Those who consider themselves to be Mac users who like the Office experience have been waiting a long time indeed for an update. Microsoft has been leaving Mac users out in the cold since 2011, but that’s going to change very soon. Mac users can expect the latest version of Office to have complete support for Retina Displays, and to enjoy a user interface that Microsoft promises to be dramatically improved from the last time around.

In terms of specific features, we don’t know everything just yet. Microsoft is certainly making some big claims for what we will get from Office 2016, when it comes out towards the end of 2015. If you’re curious about how everything with 2016 Microsoft Office is going to play out on tablets, smartphones, and similar devices, it’s worth mentioning again that this version is being geared around mobile and cloud potential. It is also worth noting that devices that will include the upcoming Windows 10 will come with the latest version of Office.

We still have a few more months to go, before Office 2016 is available to the world at large. It is expected that we will get a lot more information on Microsoft Office 2016 at the May 4th Microsoft Ignite conference.

And as usual, Microsoft Office 2016 will be available at your trusted Namibia’s fastest shopping experience online shop.

Will The Galaxy S6 Lift Samsung’s Sales Slump?

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Will The Galaxy S6 Lift Samsung’s Sales Slump? Will The Galaxy S6 Lift Samsung’s Sales Slump? samsung galaxy s6 edge tilt

Among the developers of smartphones in the market, Samsung is one of the most well-known to currently make phone models. Among Samsung’s popularity is Apple and Xiaomi, two powerhouse smartphone manufacturers that have made several people into customers, with their latest phone models and expertise in new technology even though Xiaomi being a new entrant in the market. While Samsung has enjoyed its own success, Apple and Xiaomi continue to dominate the market, in USA and China respectively, as the latest models of these companies have sold very well.

This caused Samsung loss of market dominance, however the latest Galaxy models sold well, but not as well as expected. With Samsung gearing up for their latest release, the Galaxy S6, will these phone reassess their dominance in the positional ladder of the market?

 

Why The Galaxy S6 Might Turn Up The Heat

 

Samsung was claimed “crowned king of 2014” of mobile phone sells, as it bested out Apple as selling the most phones globally for 2014. This has placed Samsung as the global leader in sales, but Apple sales increased in the last quarter of 2014 as Samsung last quarter sales fell drastically.

The next model, dubbed the “Galaxy S6” looks to improve upon the predecessor, which needs to hit all the right notes in order to convince people to upgrade. Though it doesn’t have a proper release date until April 10, 2015, the hype has already started for this phone, as the minimal features that have been released seem to be momentous and game-changing.

Perhaps the greatest feature of this phone is its wireless charging capabilities, in which the phone can be charged through integrated power that is withheld in the phone’s outer case. This has allowed for wireless charging for the phone, something that is huge for those who are constantly needing their phone while it is charging.

There are other features of both the Edge and standard Galaxy S6, which includes a better camera display that may be dubbed the highest pixel display of any smartphone sold, though these features are still being worked on. The reason Samsung fell behind both Apple and Xiaomi is its lack of differentiation between their previous models (Galaxy S4 and S5), but it seems now Samsung has given a reason to the people to switch to the next model.

With the Galaxy S6 Edge bringing a new display type to the market, might just breathe a new life in the smartphone market and help kick off a new wave which will spell profits for Samsung’s pockets. While it may take some time to make an impact for this year, Samsung might restore its dominance by the end of the year.
