Hi Kemble! Re: "Thanks! Is anyone counting how many companies DELL has invested in just in the past two months or so?"

Okay, I found the answer to how many companies Dell invests in today. I can't tell you how many investments they've made in the past 2 months. Do I win a Happy Meal for knowing part of the answer? Actually, Daniel prefers Happy Meals, so we have to go there several times per week! I will stick with my Diet Coke. And the answer follows. :)Leigh

"We invest today in about 90 different companies. We have invested about $750 million, and over the course of next year we will invest at least that much again,' Dell told reporters.

"Our focus is on things that enable Internet infrastructure. We can't do everything, and this gives the ability to have a broad reach," Dell said, noting that his company receives about 1,000 business plans a week from capital seekers.
