Helios, Wal-Mart is trading at 1.1 times revenues and has a high PE for a retailer of just under 40. DELL is trading at nearly 5 times revenues and has a PE of 70. At the same time DELL's profit margins are around 7% whereas Wal-Mart's are around 3.5%. And, growth rates for DELL have been higher. Nonetheless I think you have the right idea - we should be comparing DELL against the retailers. Now the question is, do the growth rates continue...if not is the PE too high? Gary
