>>>But the question of relevance to DELL is: "Can DELL still make money selling to that remaining 86%?" The remaining 86% are not going to be ordering $3000 machines over the web. There is a price point at which DELL's business model is no longer efficient. Are people going to pay $50 to ship a $300 computer? $200? Ironically, in the developed world with fabulously efficient package delivery services, that price point is actually much lower than in the developing world.>>> Here is a case where HPQ sells 200,000 computers for @ $560/ea. to a poor country. Lots of government support here, which China is also implementing.to get web oriented. The $113mm order would be a bit over one days (overall sales) at Dell. So its no big deal, maybe Dell did not even bid on it (hahaha) It will be one step at a time, so we dont need to support the 86% non-owners. Just pick up the next 14% and sales could double which would be very nice. biz.yahoo.com Sig
