Dell, Direct-Sales Leader, Will Offer PCs at Wal-Mart

From Bloomberg News:

Dell Inc. said it will sell personal computers at Wal-Mart Stores Inc., in the biggest step away from its direct-sales strategy since the company was dethroned by Hewlett-Packard Co. as the industry leader.

The decision is the first move in a plan to sell through retailers worldwide, Dell spokesman Bob Pearson said today. The second-largest PC maker will have two Dimension desktop models in more than 3,000 Wal-Mart stores in the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico on June 10.
