Garrick, try something a little more realistic. A 35% drop is huge!! That probably makes sense only for a company determined to play in the sub-zero playground. A 20% increase in units sold is a tremendous understatement. Remember, Dell is expected to grow at 2 to 3 times the industry average estimated at about 15%. So, lets try these numbers: 10% price drop and a 37.5% growth rate (2.5*15 = 37.5%)= 23.75% increase in revenues. Now factor in a shift towards servers and high end desk-top machines and you probably hold the line on ASP (i.e. 37.5% revenue growth). Now use the upper end of unit growth (45%) and you have 45% revenue growth. Now lets factor in robust growth in Asia and Europe and we have ... Aren't numbers wonderful! Now, all we need is proof!
