I think the key to Dell inventory is demanding all suppliers hold inventory for them. If your supplier has a warehouse next door holding disk drives and they deliver them 3 times a day, at what point is the lines of inventory held blurred? It's been an amazing story to see how well they negotiate. They probably are very punishing for any failure.
