Patrick, Hi!! RE: dell.com Interesting!! Saw the ad for this in the latest issue of "People"...I believe Princess Diana is on the cover..Also, I ran into one of our upstate NY DELLHEADS today and she informs me that she got this "great deal for her daughter on an Inspiron and other deals for sending her to college" Called to buy the notebook..."long delay Kemble..." and ended up having "oodles of information that will really benefit Sharon for her entire college career"... Yep...I can remember taking our daughter to Cornell for the first day...Went to the hockey arena to pick out a PC which was required for her course (Statistics)...Well, here are a few hundred parents and kids walking all over the arena checking out the various PC's...I insisted on buying an IBM since half the neighborhood worked there and felt they had a good PC...Guess who was the only company that didn't have them already in stock outside in a trailer waiting for the opening of college? IBM can't deliver!! Don't they know when school starts? Man I should have bought DELL back then...If I'd have figured out the frustration that this caused (she was now three weeks behind with her work) and translated this into an investment strategy...Ohhh...How many shares would I have had if I'd bought DELL in 1993? :o) Best, Kemble
