They also spent less on R+D this quarter than last quarter. They spent 4 million$ less. Because of the revenue growth, they should have spent about 6 million$ more. This little trick inflated their earnings by 10 million$ or 3 cents a share. Their margins may be up on a year over year comparison but their margins are down compared to the last quarter, down to 22% from 22.5%. Are lower priced computers starting to eat away at their margins?

By the way, when I saw the enormous upsurge in Dell, I went long and sold half my position recently for a 10g profit. I am seriously considering shorting again. Will wait and see how stock reacts to earnings report.
