Dell announced Latitude notebooks price cuts up to 17 per cent.

Dell drops da pricing bomb
DELL delved deep again today to punish rivals, announcing cuts that will make the firm even tougher to compete against in Twintel business computing.

Twenty-eight per cent falls off enterprise servers, single-core servers duck 13 per cent, up to 17 per cent comes off Latitude notebooks, and workstations lose as much as 20 per cent of their price.

The changes appear to follow along the lines of Dell’s occasional restacking of tariffs that put a stop on the progress of small clone makers. The latest cuts will be bad news for business IT rivals and white-box makers that rely on price for differentiation. Indeed, it’s getting harder to make a case for staying sloshing around in this blood bath of a market.
