I wouldn't say Dell is making any changes to their current business model. They're just missing out on the premade PC sales. HP, Emachines, and even Apples are being sold at places like Bestbuy. They're just jumping into an already crowded market place to make sure they're reaching all segments of the markets. I'd bet the premade units for sale at Best Buy would cost more than ordering the same configuration online, but they'll probably counter that by having exclusive Best Buy Only models.
