[thelist] Award Winning Site???

Memo from Martin P Burns of PricewaterhouseCoopers

-------------------- Start of message text --------------------

Yup - part of a robustly argued contract negotiation. It's
a win for both parties (unless the solution provided is a bag
o' shite of course...), and a potential win for consumers, depending
on whether Dixons pass on the savings to their customers.

Given the price-sensitivity of computer buyers, they'd be mad
not to maintain their margin and drop prices, rather than pad the
margin.

Now whether it's *ethical* or not is a different question.

Cheers
Martin
