'Changing the Landscape'...

That's clearly what DELL's doing. Kemble, I loved this quote from MSD's CNBC interview on Tuesday...

"Dell is the company that is essentially the one with the most advantaged cost position and we are driving a lot of the pricing pressure seen in the market."

-- Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Computer

IMO, this is a trend that will continue and intensify. DELL has a business model that is better by design.

See you in the 50s..!!

Best Regards,

Scott

Dell Unfazed By Pricing Pressures
by Robin Sparkman
Senior Producer,
MSNBC "Dell is the company that is essentially the one with the most advantaged cost position and we are driving a lot of the pricing pressure seen in the market."
-- Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Computer
The cost of PCs has continued to decline over the years, but Dell Computer isn?t worried that this trend will harm its rapid-fire growth. The average Dell computer still costs around $2,200, and the company?s CEO, Michael Dell, told CNBC Tuesday he wasn?t concerned about the pricing issue.
"It has been said that we are the pricing pressure. Dell is the company that is essentially the one with the most advantaged cost position and we are driving a lot of the pricing pressure seen in the market."

The nation?s second-largest PC maker is holding its "Direct Connect" conference for some 1,500 customers in Round Rock, Texas this week.

Hi Kemble, Who is the person that says "Buy Dell" all the time?? You might want to shout it from the rooftop today. In todays Investor Bus. Daily on page 1 one of their top ten items is "Dell solidifying position in the home PC market. ..outpacing Gateway, the current leader in home PC sales. Dell reported PC shipments to consumers more than doubled in the quarter ended July 30 from the year-ago period. They also have a little bar graph that shows 2nd quarter growth rate Gateway- about 42% Dell- 100%. Also a quarter page article on page 6- Business- Focused Dell Zeros In On Consumers. Extremely positive and upbeat article!! Also there just happens to be a full page ad for Dell computers for school and their school sensation sweepstakes, on the next page. Talk about good and savy PR! Like you say- Buy more Dell but buy it early today.
