Re: Obviously, a blatant lie

Actually I suspect that Dell believed what he said. They probably normally have a surge of sales at the end of the quarter as salesmen try to make quota. Perhaps it was harder to make quotas in Europe than they expected.

I guess it is all due to that recession some analysts think Europe is going through at the moment. Can't say I have seen it myself, but then I only live here.

re: "Didn't Michael Dell just say a week in a half ago, on CNBC, that they did not see the European weakness that Intel described? Obviously, a blatant lie. Dell shareholders are going to want a piece of Mikey's backside."

Not really, if the weakness was not localized to Europe alone.

Patient Regards,

DARBES
