again george, i am glad you have the courage to describe these things, just the way you felt them...and i doubt that management does really pay much attention to what appears here...competition may be the only successful message carrier...and that process takes too much time...too bad, i really had my hopes up for some sort of a major redefinition...

george..........re: "arrogance and patronizing...." i've been pointing this out for months....fallen on deaf ears....a ceo has to know how to play the game...and the game includes the street believing in what you say, as in intc conference call this week. many on the thread are blind followers, as we all have attained wealth by buying dell years ago......but it is the future of dell the stock, that all should question.....a great company...but i tend to agree with your observation... "attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be attained only by someone who is detached".... if dell has a downside...it will come from within...."nothing beats a man like over confidence"..... profit taking is all good..........ed a.

George - I had a slightly different feeling about the attitude displayed on stage - I thought they were just kind of disconnected, "on the jazz" and not inclined to pay much attention to any negative thinking which might blow their high. Or maybe impatient with people who didn't "get it". Unfortunately, it reminded me a little of the 1997 CPQ stockholders meeting where I saw the same disconnected attitude from Pfeiffer, Mason and Rose, and we know how that story ended.
