jim, take the volume that went through 5000 dealers and run it through 400 dealers..I don't think you understand.
that's a whopping number for the 400.
but, ecah of thse dealers are tied in electronically with edi to cpq vendors
this is the part this thread doesn't understand.
complete electronic supply chain management via internet and edi on vendors is the part that goes right over you'lls head.

dell doesn't edi or internet with vendors, only customers.

cpq uses all the bandwidth, t830's,t840's,t862's, t856s.
and even the electronic funds transfers via edi. cpq is already up to almost 100% of all orders even mro on edi..all purchases.
so, do you know what those "T" numbers mean..I think not???<ggg>

Jim, here is a nice link to good news for CPQ, Dell and HWP.

Merrill sees strong Q4 for top PC cos, online ads.....On the personal computer group, analyst Lucianne Painter said Compaq Computer Corp (NYSE:CPQ - news), Dell
Computer Corp (Nasdaq:DELL - news) and Hewlett-Packard Co (NYSE:HWP - news) likely would remain the primary beneficiaries of a consolidation in market share that has pushed the three farther ahead of rivals. She said it was still too early to gauge overall unit growth.
