    This is probably one of the most accurate articles I've seen about Dell's manufacturing process.

    I've been to the actual manufacturing centers and I could elaborate more on the actually build process, boxing then to the DC.

    All in all. It's amazing though how Dell does this. Keep in mind back in 1984 when Michael Dell started his company, NOBODY was attempting built to order computers on such a large scale. It does have a cool factor watching the manufacturing centers work away and if you ever get a chance to see one in action, jump on it.
