> Milestone's are always worth noting. But when the occasion is Dell's 16th
> birthday today, we think it's particularly appropriate to pause, recognize
> and celebrate all that we've accomplished in a relatively short period of
> time.
> It seems as if someone has always been telling us what we couldn't do-sell
> leading computer systems to the largest global corporate customers, apply
> the innovative direct model in markets around the global, achieve market
> leadership in one portion of the market or another. Time and again we've
> proved them wrong, with the industry's best people, best spirit and best
> way of doing business. In the process, we've delivered tremendous value to
> our customers, to our shareholders and to each other.
> Sometimes it's difficult to realize you're making history when you're in
> the middle of it, but that's exactly what we've done, and will continue to
> do, together. We enter our 17th year as the most successful company in our
> industry. We are the No. 2 computer-systems company in the world, No. 1 in
> the U.S. We continue to grow at a multiple of the industry rate, and have
> a business model that is easily the most flexible and profitable in the
> industry.
> For all of our accomplishments over the past 16 years, we believe Dell is
> in the early days of our most exciting period yet. The build-out of the
> worldwide Internet infrastructure is well under way and significant, and
> presents a tremendous opportunity for all of us. We trust you share our
> confidence that no company in our industry is as well positioned as Dell
> to shape and succeed in the Internet age.
> Please accept our sincere thanks for your contributions, yesterday and
> tomorrow, to Dell's phenomenal success. Happy birthday! |
