Lee, We discussed the entrance into new businesses last year and some thought of some kind of parallel hardware business closely connected with the current product mix while others speculated on a completely different kind of commodity type business. It was my understanding that either of these two types would make the best use of the business model. But if any expansion goes into the service/consulting arena, then other metrics will have to be used. Exactly! And moving into the service/consulting area would be a huge misstep IMO. The trick is to extend Dell's model to other areas -- not to move into other areas that do not leverage Dell's core expertise. TTFN, CTC
