why? why? why?>

Guess you never heard of competition, as in passing through savings due to component price declines, in order to lower your pricing points IN ORDER TO TAKE BUSINESS AWAY FROM YOUR COMPETITORS WHO CAN ONLY MATCH YOUR PRICE BY LOSING MONEY!! If you don't understand that, go ask IBM & CPQ, they know all about competing with DELL (not possible with their non-direct models). Cheers
