Dell has denied widely reported claims that the company is going to stop making LCD TVs. Websites and blogs started reporting on the alleged plan after a Taiwanese newspaper, Economic Daily, reported that Dell was set to exit the LCD display market as early as this month to focus on selling more profitable PCs. The company did acknowledge that it will make changes to its TV line-up but will continue to sell screens of 37 inches and smaller.
"We will soon offer a wider assortment of televisions from leading manufacturers that feature the latest technology and meet Dell's high standards for performance," said Dell spokeswoman Rachel Lyon. Back in February, Dell started selling Sony LCD televisions with screens between 40 inches and 46 inches on Dell.com. Dell also now sells TVs from Panasonic, Samsung, Viewsonic and Pioneer.
Dell is currently undergoing a corporate reorganization which includes laying off 10% of its 88,100 workers to rebound from falling market share and sinking profits. The company is also changing its core business model. In late May, the company announced it will sell desktop PCs in Wal-Mart retail stores, a step away from its "direct sales" model.
