RE: <<Equally impressive is the fact that Dell uses mainly Japanese suppliers for their Active Matrix LCD screens. I understand this is the singlemost expensive component in a laptop. With the dropping Yen, this means Dell's margins can bump up or neutralize a declining ASP. Better yet, Michael can buck the trend by holding his margins steady in order to pick up more market share>>

But pretty much everyone else gets their LCD screens from Japan or Japanese companies as well. Wouldn't this negate this part of Dell's advantage?
