DELL is being slammed with returns and are taking over a week to get back with you on the Return numbers they require. My company is returning over 50 Units due to pricing and we are being charged a fee for the S&H.... Go to CompUSA and there is no return fee. Dell very high prices compared to CPQ units at COMPUSA.. NOW I know how CPU came in with good earnings...

Jim: <<< PC prices deflation is now at a pace never seen in the industry before. >>>> Recent price cutting just minor stuff, try this 1996 data from the Dell site. 56% in 9 months, 16% in Sept followed by 12% in October,followed by more cuts..... dell.com At that rate nine months from now a $1000 pc could be selling for less than $500. <<<< They worship everything but the stocks potential on the down side.>>>> Do not bow down to false Gods.
