Law is on their side, a price is an offer to treat, not a contract.

Doesn't apply I think. What about Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain vs. Boots Cash Chemists (Southern) Ltd. ?

U guys didn't go to trade n consumer ministry yet? I'm sure the result will b same as Taiwan where the government told dell to honor the sales. The Taiwan thing even worse for dell coz so cheap at rm50 per LCD.

IANAL, but wouldn't Dell would have the right to sue the government if they did? this isn't a dictatorship where the government can force you to do something that is extralegal smile.gif

The thing is, did they actually complete the order? if they did they might have a case, if not then maybe not.

Actually yes you can, people have sued some dewan bandar (I forget which one) and won. It was because a railing gave way when he leaned on it. I can't find the article now though.

If Dell closes down a lot of people will lose their jobs.
