Yes it is true! IBM has many capabilities in house that DELL does not have. It is a larger business. IBM has a disk drive factory. It has big iron. It has a big service division. It has PC's and servers. It has lotus and DB2 software. Etc. But DELL can buy disk drives from many sources. It can contract for services it does not provide from many sources. It buys its processors from Intel as does IBM. It buys its software for the customer. By your definition IBM is also a "feedee" since it purchases its software from MSFT and its processors from Intel. So you have made a distinction that fails to distinguish IBM from DELL. So what is your point?
