Dell to stop free home delivery of computers starting October 10th

Thanks to JustAnAverageGuy from our forums for alerting me to this news story. Dell Home will stop providing free delivery of computers to your doorstep/office. If you don’t want to pay the shipping charge, you’ll have to pick up your package from your local post office. In a way, I kind of like this new policy. There’s nothing worse than being at work and checking your shipping status to find out that your brand new computer has been delivered to your house and is going to be sitting outside all day long until you get home. On the other hand, that’s one more trip for you to have to make to the post office to lug your heavy computer home.

Shipping to the post office is a good alternative! Check out the story at AnandTech.
