They don't have much up yet, do they? I counted a total of 8 PCs and laptops. All with boilk worthy Vista on them.

Does anyone now if and when we will get some Windows 7 machines in the outlet store?

I am pretty sure there was a windows 7 netbook in there this afternoon when it came back up.

There's an Inspiron 1110 with Windows 7 64 Bit up there at the moment.

Pity it's such a small laptop; it's netbook size.

The odd thing is that that would be a little over €580 after vat and delivery. The very same is available new for €574, as pointed out above. I guess it'll take a while for bargains to appear again.

As there is no longer a factory here, I wouldn't expect there to be many systems to offload.

That Polish factory was sold to a Taiwanese company over the holidays, don't know what their plans are now for Euro Manufacture/Distribution.......but the Pols are not happy at all, especially with the govt money that went in to get the place going etc.....

It was reported in the reg (on 4th December): http://www.channelregister.co.uk/2009/12/04/dell_poland/

Dell is offloading its factory in Poland to Taiwanese knock 'em out giant Foxconn, less than a year after axing most of its Irish workers and shifting their jobs to the East European facility.

Hon Hai Precision, Foxconn's parent, has reportedly agreed to take over the factory in return for around $310m.

A Dell Poland spokesperson told AFP that the deal would make little difference to production at the plant. Dell will continue to source PCs from the place.

The latest deal will raise questions over exactly how committed to European manufacturing Dell is. Its decision to effectively pull out of Ireland with the closure of its Limerick facility caused massive political fallout in the country, which was already grappling with an economic disaster.

Dell was the Republic's biggest manufacturer in Ireland, and the retreat cost the local economy €117m and the government €173m in lost tax and social insurance contributions.

Still, the European Commission handed Dell €54.4m in aid for the Polish plan in September, AFP reports.

And last week, the EU sent €14.8m to Limerick to tide the stricken town over while it copes with the loss of the Dell jobs.
