Eddie -
re: You just described 80% of the DELL investors. You say one thing that could be construed as slightly negative and they pounce on you like a tiger who hasn't eaten for weeks.

LWolf provided the response here, from Michael Dell himself.

From: (Q is money mag, A is MSD)
How Dell stays on top - CEO speaks
October 1998 MONEY magazine
Michael Dell sounds off on Compaq, the iMac and the joys of market share.


Q. A lot of people on Wall Street had been saying that your stock had gotten too expensive, especially before the market's late-August melt-down. Does Dell's valuation ever make you nervous?

A. I get uncomfortable when I don't understand why investors are buying the stock. When people don't understand our business and they invest anyway, that's scary.
