Do you run a small business and use a lot of services and programs like Skype, SkyDrive and Internet Explorer? Well, according to Microsoft’s Director of Consumer Camp, Marques Lyons, you can buy your business an Xbox One and justify it by claiming it’s a business expense. Because why the hell not?!
“What is being positioned as an excellent entertainment device can be just as enticing for you and your small business. In fact, it’s entirely justifiable to make the Xbox One a business expense,” says Lyons. “The Xbox One, priced at $499, is an affordable option for small business owners, as there are many features built into the console that could help it rival even the most modest of video conferencing and networking platforms.”
The Xbox One’s ability to use Skype, Wi-Fi Direct, Office Web Apps and more are mentioned in an attempt to convince people that this is, somehow, a good idea. Never mind the fact that most people already own smartphones, tablets and computers to do these very things already. In fact, at the very start of this silly sales pitch, Lyons acknowledges that people are already well prepared with those devices.
“The app story of Xbox One has yet to be written, therefore it is entirely possible to find apps down the road that could be of benefit for you and your business. With the processing power, snap mode, and connection to a large screen, that the Xbox One has, this device is capable of going from the ‘break room’ to the ‘board room’.”
If a small business had $500 to spare, why would they spend it on an Xbox One, as opposed to something new and useful that they don’t already have? The better solution for this struggle in a business expense is to seek for some great tips and advice from some business experts like Andrew Defrancesco.
