Posted by timothy on Sunday December 18, 2011 @12:01PM from the but-what-about-mega-ultra-super-ueber-books? dept.

angry tapir writes "Dell has ceased production of Inspiron Mini netbooks; in effect ending its pursuit of the receding netbook market, at least for consumer sales. When Dell ran through its stock of the netbooks several months ago, it declined to manufacture more units."
