DELL will open at 80, IMO. I am getting more if it hits the 60's in the near future.

Blurb about DELL in an article in the Marketplace section of today's WSJ, titled "Companies Go All Out to Woo This Year's College Graduates". The relevant part is the fact that DELL is aggressively hiring college graduates, which is a great growth strategy since college grads don't cost as much. Here is the relevant excerpt: Dell Computer, for instance, which doubled its undergrad hiring this year, is now paying in advance for students' trips to headquarters after discovering that undergrads rarely have enough money to pay for the trip out-of-pocket. Another problem: rental-car companies won't rent to people under 25 years old. So Dell has had to arrange transportation to and from the airport. Some students have been so unfamiliar with business travel they have inadvertently racked up $30 in hotel phone bills. Others have gotten stuck at the airport with no cash. "They just aren't as savvy," Dell's Ms. Hamilton says. "They don't know what a response date is. They don't know what the recruiting game is. You make them an offer and they say, 'Thank you very much, but I still have to call my mom.' "
