Dell wasn't in existence 20 years ago, and IBM had not yet released the first PC!

First off, Dell's IPO was late 1988. It's split adjusted price was approximately $.50

It is now approx. $116.00

That equals an approximate return of 23,200%

BRKA at the same time was around $7,000 (1988)

It is now $75,000

That's a return of approx. 1100%

$7000 in BRKA 1988 = 1998 $75,000

$7000 in Dell 1988 = 1998 $1,624,000

Maybe my math is wrong.

Doubt it.
