If they can pull it off, it's a great move. I'm a long term repeat customer and Dell's biggest weakness isn't the overseas call centers it's the disconnect between thier hardware and Microsoft's sub-par support for an aging software platform. I've also had several HP products and as far as I'm concerned, that company can't go away fast enough.
