Hey inaflash,

Thanks for digging up that quote. I have been thinking about it a lot lately, especially as Apple's market cap approaches Dell's. Also thinking about Sun's (actual or reputed) offer to buy Apple for 22-24 dollars a share (before two splits)when it was trading around 30.

In 1997, after Jobs returned to the company he helped start in 1976, Dell founder and CEO Michael Dell, was asked what could be done to fix Apple, in deep financial trouble at the time, the New York Times said.

"What would I do? I'd shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders," Dell said to an audience of information technology managers, according to the paper.
