Drew,
Hi!!! I'M SCARED

You know buddy I have never lost my cool when Dell has made some incredible move or announcement...yeah sure I have yelled when I read about their progress here and there...you bet I jumped on those 8 pt. days...ok...so, I screamed once at an earnings announcement...smiled thousands of times daily at 7AM....but, these past 24hours have changed me...

First: Wednesday at 10:35AM CNBC....
Michael spoke of CHINA....(see CHINA CHINA CHINA post to Steve last night)
Second: Thursday at 12:45 PM You call me....
Now I am in the middle of a stone wall and my wife hands
me the phone..".Kemble babes, you see the Reuters News
on Dell?" ......No, been working.....About What?..."CHINA"

Drew,

My friend you are the witness...you started to read this and I came unglued...during the next ten minutes you had me zigging and zagging through the gardens ....around the lawn....yelling and hollering....reading this announcement you touched off this joyous romp....hey you continued so calmly ...you were in control....ok, so I did hear you laughing endlessly under your breathe....I continued to gasp and gasp over and over again...blurting out orgasmic sounds...all the while you kept feeding me more and more of this stunning news...I now wonder.....Where did this child at the top of the stairs waiting for mom to turn on the Christmas lights come from?...heck, I thought those joyous uncontrollable moments were a thing from my childhood...wait you went on...it was a long announcement...one I had waited for .....waited and waited and waited for...yeah sure I had said that Dell being quiet going into the earnings was a great sign...I even predicted a great announcement immediately afterwards to continue to move the stock...but, this...this...this...CHINA....CHINA ...CHINA...this was not what I expected...hold on I am truly losing it...hard to admit this childish behavior...but, why not? We're up 13pts in two days <<ggg>> Wow...what really finished me was the paragraph where Mort predicts : "CHINA WILL BE THE #2 MARKET FOR DELL IN FIVE YEARS" That did it Drew.....it's over....I was out of control...and I didn't care...I just imagined Dell growing at the rate it is now in all these other areas...you know I don't think the rest of the world is going to stand still for China to catch up... CHINA will become #2 with a present day % of only 6???? ...... Is this fantasy? Is this something to become ecstatic about??...say, I waited two years for this announcement...I didn't expect it this soon....I can surely wait for years and watch Dell become what Mort has predicted...this will be some "wait"...I have the feeling this thread is about to become a whole lot more obnoxious in the years to come! ...I must remind you...Michael yesterday used the word "RAPIDLY" when describing the CHINA market...

THANKS DREW...THANKS.....DELL in CHINA.... IMO is the perfect case scenario for direct...Michael said it yesterday...I may be out of control now...Dell will soon be out of control in CHINA!
Drew...that's scary....

Best, kemble.
