Dr. Levy,

editorially speaking, it is much more difficult to present a concept in 20 words then it is to present it in 200 words. short concise communication requires additional thinking (not to mention it takes a hell of lot less time to read and write) sorry if I offended you. This is a free country and you or anyone else may post as many words as you feel is appropriate anywhere you want!

As I stated I also was impressed with the Man's thinking

I am still looking for an answer to my question

Who has the most to win and who has the most to lose from reduced pricing in the server market??

Jason

Paul L. Re:<< Upside.com interview with M. Dell article>>

Can you please clarify the quoted statement below? Wouldn't ROA consist of property as well as interest received? Yahoo shows Dell's ROA as 27.57% and ROE as 94.57% (as updated March 13, 1998). Just trying to fit in the pieces.

Last quarter [the third quarter in Dell's 1998 fiscal year, which ended Nov. 2, 1997], our return on capital was 178 percent. So we're
earning much more than 10 times our cost of capital.


Regards,

Lee
