The company has, however, decided that the Xtreme brand has become too generic and didn&#39;t address specific market sectors. <\/p>\n<p>The new range is designed for the home, home-office, professional and gaming markets. <\/p>\n<p>The home market range, called the Prelude, includes a range of sub-brands catering for home users from education needs to family gaming and multimedia. <\/p>\n<p>The Symphony range is aimed at the Home Office PC market while the Proficient range is designed for the corporate and professional market. <\/p>\n<p>The Graphite and Graphite Cosmos range are designed for the gaming community with the Cosmos being labelled a &quot;state of the art&quot; gaming PC. <\/p>\n<p>The company says that &quot;the various Mecer desktop ranges are now clearly distinguishable from each other, and identifiable by a different case for each range. While each range comprises a number of pre-configured models, flexibility will still be available in terms of hardware and software configurations to satisfy extraordinary end-user specifications&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>Mecer is also rebranding its server range as the Omega range and its laptops as Xpression. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/vb\/showthread.php?t=118349\">Mecer PC discussion<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Local PC vendor scraps generic Xtreme brand in favour of market-focused PCs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3778","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-hardware"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3778"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3778"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3778\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3778"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3778"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3778"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
