Answer to Question 1

Dell reduced its operating costs by bypassing the distributors and retailers in its supply chain. At dell.com, the customer selects a computer online, customizes it, clicks the Buy button, and then tracks the order until it arrives at the front door, shipped directly from the manufacturer. The monitor, shipped in a separate box, may come from a different manufacturer, but Dell synchronizes the delivery so all the hardware arrives at the same time. This low-cost strategy helped Dell dominate the PC market for a while.

Answer to Question 2
