Dell inks deal with rec-products maker

Bombardier Recreational Products, maker of Ski-Doo snowmobiles and Johnson outboard motors, among other motorized devices, has signed a seven-year deal with Dell. Bombardier, also known as BRP, plans to purchase 5,200 Dell systems, including desktops, notebooks, servers and storage, as well as a menu of related services from the Round Rock, Texas, PC maker.

The first phase of the deal, whose total value is in the tens of millions of dollars, according to a Dell spokesman, is already underway at BRP sites in Canada, the United States and Europe.

And?...5200 Systems over 7 years is newsworthy?

That breaks down to an average of 743 systems a year. Our University purchases that, do you want to publish that too?
Some things are better left to the company's press release area of their website, not in a news article. Unless of course you sell advertising space to Dell. Hmmm......
