JDN -
DELL's revenue forecast does not explain the drop in earnings - it would cover only about half, even at the lowered margins they showed last Q. And the unit numbers do not explain the revenue shortfall - only about half again. The story just does not add up. I agree that their model is putting a squeeze on them that won't let up unless we see a reversal in market conditions, but that is only part of the story. I expect that DELL management will need to do a LOT better at explaining the problem and give some pretty tight guidance to get any confidence from investors...
