DELL has a debt to equity ratio of 0.7 which is higher than HPQ You might want to understand what net debt is. DELL has 14B+ cash with 5B debt. HPQ has 8B cash and 30B debt. the debt to equity ratio for HPQ is 0.5 which seems quite managable to me. Nobody said it was unmanageable. But if you think that having 22B net debt is better or comparable to having 10B net cash (DELL) or even more for other tech companies mentioned, you think rather strangely.
