Dell XPS phase-out symptomatic of declining PC gaming sector

Dell currently offers two desktop product lines. The lower tier (Inspiron), is meant for cost-conscious buyers, with entry prices as low as $379, while the upper tier (XPS), further bifurcates into XPS Performance/All-in-One and XPS Gaming PCs. Out of this group, only the XPS Gaming tier is being eliminated, and Dell apparently intends to continue using the XPS brand on mainstream desktops and higher-end laptops. As for the reason why Dell chose to eliminate its XPS gaming division, the numbers below paint a sobering picture.

I am asking the question of how stupid could they be, they will loose a bunch of customers because of this. Although most people don’t release how hard the economy is hit with this recession but I will improve sooner or later!!
