Thread.....REF: The deal with Acer announced today......>

The story contained the following:

Acer will start shipping 100,000 low-priced desktop and laptop
computers to Dell each month in the first quarter of next year.


I wonder exactly what are we talking about when we say low-priced. Interesting.

I would guess that at the present time Dell does not have the
facilities to produce these low-cost machines. If that is true
I would think that farming them out to Acer would be a pretty
good deal for Dell. If there is a market for these machines like
we know there is let's go for it.

It's ironic though that we have been hearing rumors about Dell
building computers for IBM, and it turns around that Acer will
now build machines for Dell. Will wonders never cease.....J.D.

P.S. I heard from Dell IR Department today.....All is forgiven!
