<<(On the other hand Michael Dell apparently stressed the lower costs of
components, such as DRAMS more than offset the price decline of finished goods )>>

Re: Asia, Michael Dell, in his CNBC interview stressed lower labor costs
on 70% of his product components vs only 7% sales of finished goods
back to Asia. This was in response to a negatively phrased question
from Haynes about how much the Asian crisis would hurt Dell's sales.

Asia is not about to stop investing in a high-tech infrastructure
as that is their main hope for the future. Internet and
telecommunications sales will continue, IMO.
