Just got hit at 36 1/8. Good grief. It should bounce a little. Famous last words. There is some heavy short covering going on.

Hmmm I checked the numbers Dell did 16 Cents in January 99 and they are going to to 16 cents this coming February so that means Zero profit growth last quarter to quarter. No problem all internets stock going up with report of minus eps and eps like Ebay which earned 4 cent to two and still manage to go up 17 points. lol I still have faith (albet very little) in you retards to bid this up anyway.

The conference call was not much help. The general perception in the analyst community is that DELL failed to accurately forecast the Y2K shortage (not so much the "component" problems) unlike HP and IBM that came out well ahead of the pack last year to warn. DELL on the other hand kept misguiding analysts by constantly stating that "we will not be affected by Y2K". This now will come home to roost with a crediblity problem with the Street. Hope Short Covering helps to stabilize the stock somewhat tomorrow.
