eco, The trouble with gtw is they think they know better than Dell. That means they change their direct model to make it better than dells, yet it is not.
Their only hope was to slavushly copy every aspect of dells model a few years back. Instead they shot themselves in the foot many many times.
Cow Leather Logo....very bad. even now they keep a vestige of black patches on the box, and it is not as bad.. Business hates that stuff.

They try to make for the discount stores....bad move. there is no margin for that.

GTW has one hope. coppy Dell exactly right now. make not more for others and sell only to end users via the web. Close all US stores(are there any left)

Wait hired fools as manager and now he has come back. he is no better. he does not need managers. he needs to copy Dell. Copy Dell. Two words.
Possibly an AMD deal will help them??

retail stores all over when Dell had none. very bad, a killer of sales. Those stores cost them the race. The logo they changed and limited the losses. The stores they kept and were forced into huge losses with them

I think GTW is in a permanent decline since their manglement seems totally unable to make any correct decisions.
