NEW YORK, March 16 (Reuters) - Compaq Computer Corp
plans to offer free monitors and other accessories with its
desktop personal computers for businesses, in an effort to
reduce inventory at its distributors, the Wall Street Journal
said Monday.
Compaq said it will give away 15-inch monitors, valued at
about $300 each, with its commercial desktop PCs and extend the
memory promotion, which had been limited to high-end servers, to
other units, the paper said in its electronic edition, citing
distributors and others close to Compaq.
Compaq's consumer business isn't suffering an inventory
backup and won't be affected by the new promotions, the paper
said. |
