Stefan,

For someone who seems to be selectively bright, is there some reason why you missed out on other key statistics?

1. DELL made its earnings number.
2. Direct sales model is eating market share, PC retailers are losing to DELL, GTW, and other boxmakers converting to the Direct Sales model.
3. In its annual analysts conference Wednesday and Thursday, Dell confirmed that it would continue to grow at 3.5 to 4 times the rate of the rest of the industry; and that it would meet both earnings and sales estimates.

As Laszlo Birinyi said on WSW a couple weeks ago, we've seen this technology recession 23 times in the 90's.

After 23 times of watching this movie, Laszlo knows the ending. ... and I think I do too.

FWIW,
Ian.
