Eric, OTOTOTOT

I am sorry if I un intentionally offended you.
I firmly resolve with the help of thy grace to sin no more and to avoid the near occassion of sin.
Yes I can see how my reference about Alan Greenspan may have been mis interpreted. I did not mean to do so with you personally but my choice of words may have not been the best. Anyway! yes I think we should lay down our swords and beat them into box making equipment and concentrate all our efforts and best wishes towards the continued success of Dell and all the investments which are making our futures a bit better.

God Bless and best wishes to you and your future
Best Regards
Frank

Old PC Dogs Try New Tricks

Eric:
Here is Fortune's take on PC biz but I think the article is based on
Q1 results and not Q2.

===============================================================

Selling PCs is now just a sideline for Compaq, Gateway, IBM, and HP. Even Dell sees PCs as an entree to other businesses.

David Kirkpatrick

here's a funny thing happening in the personal computer business. The leading players are making all kinds of moves to improve profits--and the initiatives have surprisingly little to do with selling PCs. In fact, as lower prices undermine already crummy margins, anyone who wants to be a top dog in computers must master some new trick. Recent quarterly earnings reports showed that making PCs well is no guarantee of healthy profits. The PC numbers from Compaq, IBM, and Hewlett-Packard were terrible. And while Gateway's recent numbers were fine, only Dell is loping along like a big happy collie, with each quarter bringing nothing but upside surprises.
