Dell, Intel, Microsoft or substitute Compaq for Dell if you

Interesting that you compare Dell to Microsoft and Intel.

Does MSFT have any equal in the software industry? Nope. Total dominance...

Does INTC really have any competition in the microprocessor industry? Nadda... something like 85% market share.

Does Cisco have any worthy rivals in the networking industry? Don't think so. BAY/ASND/CS/COMS all have problems and are much smaller...

Does DELL have any serious competition in it's business? YES! Compaq, who is almost twice as big.
You said it yourself "substitute Compaq for Dell if you hate Dell but definately own one of the two boxmakers."

You just helped make my point. There is no substitute for MSFT, CSCO, or INTC. There is a substitute for DELL. That is why DELL shouldn't be granted quite the same premiums that Wintelco enjoy.

Don't expect to see WinDELLco anytime soon...

(P.S. DELL is a fine company. So is the price)
