mish,

This type of BS is very common in the electronics industry, however companies like Dell are usually not this open about it.

Back in my working days (electronic components sales manager), I was responsible for negotiating annual contracts with the top EMS companies.

Wouldn't believe the kick backs these guys tried to force on us. Some legal but many borderline to the point I was looking over my shoulder until on the airplane home.
