Kevin...Your point of % increase and what it is compared to is well taken. Sell one unit to xpaciania and two the next Q an viola, 200% increase. Only looking at %'s is not going to make any case by itself. What I am impressed with is your politeness in addressing what Dell is doing. You should read their thread, the bashing and foul language is uncivilized.

Kevin,
"It is easy to show great growth in small numbers (i.e. from $100 to $200 is 100%, but it is still only $100). That is the market's love. Think about it, DELL's revenues still aren't 50% of CPQs."
Yes, but . . . Ford, Chrysler, and GM said the same thing about Toyota and Honda in the early 80's.
Jack
