Dell's prices were a bit high compared to the competition. They had sufficient margin for a price cut.

<btw, if mu is raising prices, as are the disk drive boys, how can dell lower prices 11% due to lower component costs?>

Memory prices are firm (at lest for now). Hadn't heard that about DD's. Monitors prices have been falling dramatically and CPU's prices continue to fall at scheduled intervals. I assume that motherboards, soundboards, CD's, DVD's, graphics adapters, etc. are also continuing to decrease as their own costs improve and they fight for market share.
