Dell Mucks Up Pricing And Offers Mouse For $3999

on 12/17/2009, filed in Home > Computers

This might and might not be related to Dell’s recent round of layoffs, but who can tell? Dell already has plans in plan to lay off 16% of its 4500 strong workforce in Malaysia, which translates to 700 people losing their jobs by the end of June 2010. The funny thing is, almost around the same time as the layoffs were announced, a whole bunch of pricing mistakes started showing up on dell. You’re able to find great deals such as a 3.2GHz dual-core Xeon 5060 processor going for just $10.99, a Xeon E3110 3GHz for $16.99 and many others. Of course, there are also other mistakes that aren’t so appealing, such as this laser mouse going for $3999, a laptop power adapter going for $709, and they’re still listed as such at time of writing. Do we sense some disgruntled employees?
