Good point... ...my first purchase of Dell (May 97') was almost spontaneous and I paid a little over $107/share...there were plenty of naysayers, however I had heard of Dell before I moved to Austin from Minnesota. Once I was here and was exposed to the area of DELL...I bought without a second concern about price. It then ran up to around $190, subsequently there has been two more splits (or is it three?) and the price is even cheaper than when I bought. That said I did decide not to be greedy and twice pulled a nice chunk off the table. One time was influenced by those who just KNEW it was going to "tank"...and I foolishly allowed myself to get "sucked in"...never again. For those of you who are not sure what to do...conduct your own DD...but don't be like the people still waiting to buy their first computer because they want the best for the least amount of money. This is stock and its sector is a whole different kind of animal. Good luck! T.R.

Sorry, back then they were the underdog and now they are not. No where to go but down. IMHO they are just like CPQ was last year at this time when the CPQ CEO was being hailed as a business giant. No doubt that Michael is one very smart guy but the Internet explosion has to be driving the asp's down along with the the overall trend in technology which has been driving prices down since the birth. You don't need high powered micros with fantastic graphics at 2500 ea to use the only pc killer ap out there right now... the net, when you can get high powered micros with fantastic graphics at 1200 or soon to be less.
