You know, that gorilla theory is one thing, but by becoming larger and larger, it becomes more difficult to grow at the same speed. Intel and Microsoft are two exceptional companies, and even they are having the same problem. Bert, there is another thing that Dell did which looked great short term but hurt it in the longer term.....and that was to split the stock so many times that its profits became badly diluted. In addition to the slowing revenue issue, I believe that has also kept the stock from moving up. ted
