LoD & ALL - this answer from MD to an interviewer question made me GRIN when I read it. I think all of you will see the humor in his response (like let them keep doing it the old fashioned way, we know better).

YOUR COMPETITORS ARE MOVING INTO THE SERVICE MARKETS. IS DELL
THINKING ABOUT GOING INTO THE SERVICE BUSINESS?

ANSWER (DELL):

Well, you know, it's almost like we are going in 180 degrees different directions.
Dell's moving its service model to the Internet in automated, non-labor intensive
fashion, and our competitor
acquired a company with 55 thousand employees who are primarily field based
service - which is really more of a traditional, old way of doing service - and I really
like that equation - that sounds
like a good way to compete to me and I'm real excited about that.

Lod, how do you view the fact of Dell closing near its low of the day and on heavy volume. 117 1/2, 32+million shares!!! From a TA point, I believe this is pretty bad.

What's you feeling about this close, and guess for next weeks performance?
