I think it quite obvious that much money over the past few years has been spent addressing the Y2K computer problem. This money had to come from somewhere, and in many cases it was at the expense of buying new PCs and software. I think Dell et al have probably said as much. In addition, there may be a bunch of people who never thought their PCs were not Y2K compliant who may be in for a rude shock in a few days. So, once Y2K finally blows over, I think it logical to assume money will once again flow in the direction of companies like Dell.

P.S. I can't believe in a mere two days (less if you consider other time zones) we'll know once and for all who is "right" and who is "wrong" about the severity of Y2K.
