"They are overpriced for what there are." What facts do you have to support that opinion? I think you need to do more homework. I have been shopping for a new PC and have an exact list of what specs. it must meet and everything it must include. It is a higher end desktop PC. HP & CPQ have been eleminated because prices are too high. And Dell, Gateway and Micron are left in the running and it's competitive as hell with these three companies...they're all within a few dollars of one another. It appears to be coming down to service plans and reviews & test results.

RE : "...BTW: if you decide to sell your shares, continue with the same reasoning and short the stock..." Francois, You are obviously new here. I seem to be the only bear that is willing to voice their opinion on this thread. It (voicing my opinion) has been a real challange. Several of the regulars have made me rethink my position in a multitude of ways. I am one that will admit when he is wrong. The result of all of their responces is that: The folks on this thread Like DELL the company, Dell the business model, Dell the Technology haven, Dell the huge gainer of the last 2 years. They worship everything but the stocks potential on the down side. Dell is a great company, But I have been short for a while now. Plenty more time for me to hang out. PC prices deflation is now at a pace never seen in the industry before. Can DELL grow units without entering the fastest growing segment of the market (low priced models)? Good Luck All Jim
