Congratulations to the longs here.

You have to admire Michael Dell and his management team. What an astounding quarter!

Bachman, here's the financial fact sheet:

dell.com

gross margin improved from 22.3% last quarter to 22.7% this quarter. Net margin climbed to 8%. Servers are the fastest growing segment of the business, and now account for 12% of sales. Europe is the fastest growing geographic area -- now 25% of sales.

Inventory remains at about 8 days. ASP is $2,400. ROIC is a blistering 217%!

I haven't had time to analyze the whole report, but at first blush it looks great!

TTFN,
CTC
