Stock bull,

re: I'm starting to believe that eMachines may pose a threat to Dell's retail market.

Don't you think emachines would pose a greater threat to HP in the retail space since when you visit an officedepot or staples to purchase one of those fantastic emachines, you might have initally gone in to look at an HP machine which is on retail store shelves, unlike DELL which has no shelf retail space?

Dell is the number one computer manufacture worldwide by a small margin, and in the US by a larger margin. HP combining with CPQ; IBM pulling out of the retail space a few years ago; People PC giving away free PC's with internet purchase; GTW opening up tons of stores; HP trying to follow DELL's business plan by "going direct" again and again......DELL has still continually GAINED market share. You really think emachines pose a real threat in any space??

Cheers
