Dell Plans to Sell PCs at Wal-Mart

Posted by Zonk on Thursday May 24, 2007 @07:16AM from the just-a-bit-outside-the-norm dept.

DJAdapt writes "In a departure from Dell's approach of selling machines only directly to customers, a Dell spokesman said Thursday that the computer maker will begin selling two of its Dimension desktop computers in about 3,000 Wal-Marts beginning June 10. Dell spokesman Dwayne Cox said the Wal-Mart deal 'represents our first step' into global retail. 'Customers want more and new ways to buy our products, and we plan on meeting their needs on a global level,' Cox said. 'Offering Dell Dimensions in Wal-Mart is a great example of this approach.'"

Your missing the point a ps3 = ps3, but all computers arte not created equal. People know that unlike you, and therfore will probly asume that its the bardgain brand, but then i;d have to see what wally mart will be selling them for. All in all probly not the best move on dells part, i would have stuck with the drirect to consumer sales.
