Dell layoffs lead to price mistakes -- $10 processors and $4,000 mouse
If only the officials at Dell had watched "Office Space" not only would they have known that you always let people go on a Friday and if you do layoff workers you need to be prepared for the fallout before The Wall Street Journal reports on your 16% workforce cut in Malaysia.
Otherwise you run the risk of Web site pricing shenanigans. Sure it's no Superman 3 style rounding exploit like the plan enacted by the disgruntled Initech employees, but Dell's remaining workers appear to be taking out their frustration by drastically changing the prices on Dell.com.
