Dell ending free home delivery of computers

Dell Inc. will stop its practice of sending low-end computers to customers homes without charge in order to cut costs, the company said Thursday. We will add this to our list of reasons to build your own computer!

Starting Oct. 10, Dell's free shipping offer on basic models will apply only to people willing to pick up their computers at the post office, said Jennifer Davis, spokeswoman for Dell's U.S. consumer business. Customers will have to pay extra for home delivery. Dell's direct sales model helped it become one of the lowest-cost computer makers as it bypassed retailers. But aggressive price-cutting caused the Round Rock, Texas-based company to miss analysts' revenue-growth forecasts last quarter.
