I don't know whether you heard about it or not but apparently Dell is closing down its Texas plant and moves into contract manufacturing. After a number of not very satisfactory financial performance, it seems that Michael Dell is quite determine to overhaul its supply chain.

And if you consider to buy a nice Dell Computer for yourself I would recommend that you use Dell Coupons to get even better deals.
