Hi, Kemble! No surprise that Dell people are busy. Good to know they were right on top of the problem, too... it was good to end on an up note with heavy volume today. Maybe tomorrow will send us over 50 :))) Here's to a super Tuesday... (esp. for GWB) :)) Pats

Dell Expects Up to 60% of Asia Pac Sales via Internet in 2000 Hong Kong, March 6 (Bloomberg) -- Dell Computer Corp. said it expects to sell as much as 60 percent of its computers in Asia Pacific via the Internet this year, as it seeks a Hong Kong listing to boost its profile in the region. The world's biggest direct-seller of personal computers received 46 percent of its orders in Asia Pacific online in the quarter through December, slightly below the worldwide average of about 50 percent. ``We are trying to increase the ratio to 50 percent the minimum, preferably 60 percent this year,' said Goran Malm, president of Dell's Asia Pacific operations. A listing in Hong Kong, which was announced last year and is expected to go ahead later this month or next month, would help capture market share, he said. Dell sold $1.15 billion worth of computers in Asia Pacific last year, accounting for 6 percent of its total revenue. Sales in the region grew 57 percent 1999 over the previous year, thanks in part to the fast-growing Chinese market. That was slightly faster than Europe and North America, which respectively reported a growth rate of 52 percent and 53 percent. Mar/06/2000 3:20
