Here you go Jim,

CPQ P II 333, Deskpro Series EP
64MB, 4.3, 4MB Vid, Sound, CDROM 24X, Win NT 4.0, No Monitor or anything else really.
$1,575

DELL,
Same thing,
$1,857

Now,
1857>1575
1857 is 18% greater than 1575.

So from this one simple example, It would appear that every thing I have said is true.

The note says that DELL may scrafice unit growth for the sake of margins. And the guy thinks that DELL may be pricing for margin rather than growth. This may be partly because expences may increase as a percent of sales, Probably due to DELL's agressive expansion efforts.
