You're right, of course, the numbers were were almost exactly in line with analyst's expectations for that period.

What is the effect of Dell on MS tomorrow? This is what caused Dell to crash: If the softness persists into the fourth quarter, Dell's full-year revenue could be $32 billion, an increase of about $7 billion, or 27 percent, from sales for fiscal 2000, the company said. Although that growth rate is good for the industry, it isn't so hot for Dell. Analysts were hoping for growth of about 30 percent, and didn't sound very responsive to Dell's latest attempt to lower expectations. Let's see, I've forgotten now, how many copies of win98, win98se, winME, winNT or win2000 would that be? And didn't Dell lower their per system price, so wouldn't that be even more than a 27% increase for ol' mister softee?..
