DELL sees strong growth in Asia Pacific
SINGAPORE, May 28 (Reuters) - Dell Computer Corp (NasdaqNM:DELL - news) said on Monday its revenues for the first quarter, from February 5 to May 4, rose 42 percent year-on-year and unit shipments grew 65 percent year-on-year for the Asia Pacific region.

Chip Saunders, Dell's Asia Pacific president told Reuters in an interview the company's rate of growth in this first quarter was four times as fast as the Personal Computer (PC) market for the Asia Pacific region as a whole.

``Our business model is an advantage,'' he said referring to Dell Corp's direct sales model which allows the computer maker to pass on lower component prices to customers. Dell Corp is the world's number one PC maker.

Looking ahead Saunders said Dell was expected to show a strong performance for the rest of this year.

``In Asia we continue to see demand in the high teens for the balance of the year (for the whole market). We expect Dell to perform at a strong multiple of this,'' Saunders said.
