We'll see. After the MM manipulation today to hold DELL at 85 for options expiry, Monday could prove very sloppy.

RE: But you see Jim, high end demand may not abate and Dell may not
stumble. Just keep in mind, the disasterous Dell scenarios you're dreaming about may not occur for a long, long, long time.

Or they may already be here.
Don't forget,
Both IBM and CPQ agree that the days of 30% and 40% margins on high end servers are over. Both think 20-25% is reasonable.

Big difference there IMO.

Meathead,

Since you are the expert on PC design here,
RMBS is on the move.
How does RDRAM fit into the picture.
I know what it is, but how will it be taken advantage of?
Will there be a memory bus in the same way as AGP,
Will the whole MB speed up to 200-400MHZ ?
Will RDRAM PC be like having 128MB of cache memory?
Will any single manufacture, Box maker like DELL or DRAM maker like MU have a substantial advantage for any reason I would not think of?

I hope it helps more than 100Mhz SDRAM :)

Thanks for your explanaion in advance to this multi part question.

And no, I am not shorting this one.
Jim
