(Sorry, but I got tired of the tirade of posts against the bears today with no supporting data..)

My point in this whole discussion is to make the bears support their assertion that "every single one of those OEM Zip drives sold at a loss to Dell" We are talking about the new Zip 250 drives. Not the old 100's. Plainly, it is not known exactly what price Dell is paying for the drives. We know what the consumer pays. Therefore the statement that "every single one of those..." is a false and misleading lie. This may seem semantical, but in reality is intentional deception and misrepresentation of fact. Not every bear is guilty of this offense, some bulls are as well. I don't think those types of statements are made unintentionally, they are intentionally meant to deceive. Don't whine about bears being ganged up on with no supporting data, the entire bear premise has no supporting data.

I maintain that Dell moving potentially positive margin Zip 250s, in volume, is great news to IOM shareholders. Some of the best news in a while. It's the rabid bears that try to shoot down positive news with misleading statements of the type we are discussing here.
