Re: <<Dell does have a large R&D, but it is focused almost entirely on the cases. They have done a lot to change the way the parts are packaged, and the ease with which the parts can be placed into the case in the factory.>> I don't view this activity as research, it's really an engineering job. To me, R&D is developing the physics of semiconductors into useful products. Of course this is an example as there are many other fields where research is carried out. Another example would be when Bell Labs did the research needed to prove that the transistor was possible, they went on to develop the transistor into a useable product. Larry
