John: Dell will be a teenager when people realize that Dell is losing money, not making money. But as long as Dell provides a safe haven to institutional investors compared to all other stock, the 70%+ owners (institutional & insider)will keep the money in Dell. But who known the herd mentality can turn against Dell one of these days. When it does, it won't be because Dell is not a great company operationally, but because of the stupidity in the derivative handling and management greed.

Hi John, Dell holding up relatively well today. Another near perfect short straddle at a 25 strike. Also love that 10 year note......about to lock into a 30 year mortgage, and rates are soooooo low!! --------------------------------------------------------- Customers Increasingly Choose Dell Network Storage Systems According to New Industry Research AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 19, 2002--Dell (Nasdaq:DELL) was the only storage vendor to post double-digit unit and revenue growth worldwide in both the NAS and SAN product categories during the second quarter this year, according to new research released today by industry analyst firm IDC(a). The research shows that customers worldwide are increasingly choosing Dell as their network storage provider, enabling Dell to grow its second quarter shipments of network attached storage (NAS) systems by 32.2 percent quarter-over-quarter, while shipments for the overall NAS market declined by 3.1 percent. Dell also shipped 2,463 terabytes of total storage area network (SAN) capacity during the quarter, 56.4 percent more than in the first quarter, and growing nearly three times that of the overall market. The results demonstrate a growing customer preference for Dell EMC Fibre Channel storage systems based on the companies' strategic partnership. In addition, IDC estimated that Dell's total network storage revenue, comprised of PowerVault(tm) network attached storage (NAS) and Dell EMC storage area networks (SAN), grew 24.2 percent over the previous quarter, more than five times the market's overall network storage revenue growth of just 4.3 percent. Among the recent customers that have chosen Dell as their network storage infrastructure provider are Patterson Dental, La Madeleine, HOK Sport + Venue + Event (HOK S+V+E) and Rackspace. "Dell is committed to simplifying the deployment of standardized network storage systems that provide the best balance of service, features and performance to grow with our customers' business needs," said Russ Holt, vice president and general manager of Dell's Enterprise Systems Group. "Whatever the storage requirements, Dell gives customers the flexibility to choose the system that suits their storage needs today, with the capability to expand the systems for future growth."

U.S. Military Academy At West Point Selects Dell Technology for Fall Programs AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 19, 2002-- Academy Purchases More Than $3 Million in Dell Servers, Storage and Notebook Computers U.S. Military Academy (USMA) at West Point has purchased more than $3 million in Dell(tm) (Nasdaq:DELL) technology to power two programs for the 2002-2003 academic year. Dell PowerEdge(tm) servers and a Dell EMC storage-area-network (SAN) will support the academy in digitizing portions of the cadet library, including annual yearbooks, Civil War maps, cadet records from famous graduates, personal correspondence of significant historical figures, among other data. Additionally, each Plebe (freshman) has been issued a Dell Latitude(tm) C840 notebook for his or her studies this fall. "West Point is in the vanguard of adopting computers and technology into all aspects of education and cadet development," said Major Bill Turmel, chief of the User Support Branch at West Point. "We are developing technically savvy leaders who will guide the Army and the nation in the information age. Dell's technology met our requirements for performance, reliability and price." The network deployment for the notebooks took place in a one-day period, beginning with the computers being issued off the back of trucks into the hands of the cadets. The following morning, all cadets were registered to the domain and logged on to the network. "Dell worked closely with us to meet our strict shipping and configuration requirements to accomplish the one-day network deployment," said Colonel Don Welsh, associate dean for information and educational technology at West Point. Technology is woven deeply into West Point's academic courses. The military chain of command within the Corps of Cadets also relies heavily on cadet computers as communication tools. West Point was among the first few educational institutions to wire virtually each living space and classroom with a computer network. The curriculum has included Internet access since 1987. Today, cadets have Internet access from each of 4,000 cadet personal computers and some 600 computers in laboratories. The Dell Latitude C840 notebooks were purchased through the U.S. Army Small Computer Program's ADMC-1 BPA Contract.
