According to the Wall Street Journal, Dell is restructuring their production in a massive overhaul that will send the entire manufacturing process overseas. According to one insider's account, most or all of Dell's factories, which are based in the US, will be sold off in 18 months.

Dell has long used their own factories to assemble computers after a consumer places an order—a technique Dell pioneered to cut inventory costs and boost profits. Currently, the company relies on Asian computer parts assembled in Dell US factories—the "two touch" process. The planned transition, which has already been made for some laptops, will move all production to foreign contract manufacturers—something we already see from companies like HP and Apple.

So the only question that remains is whether or not there will be interested buyers in Dell's $2.6 billion in production plants. Because if Dell is backing out of the game, it's gotta be a tough sell to anyone. [WSJ]

I wonder what Dell do with all the money they earn from selling their factories and making computers where labour costs are cheaper.

i can't fake how happy i am dell are making cut backs

I got a feeling Dell just hire more cheaper new employees in poor countries, and pay the employee a few dollers for hours of work.

i hate dell for many many many reasons and i hate dell fanboys who are to stupid to realise that dell are over priced piles of crap.


Well it should improve the quality electronics assembled by folk without thumbs never works right.

I like Dell and don't have a problem with them.
