K.,

re >>>Actually Dell's rate of growth in the server market is in the triple digits,thought I
bring that up in case you didn't know. <<

This is probably not maintainable over the long term!<

Starting at 1% marketshare in a market growing at 10% a year, a company growing sales at 100% would have 100% marketshare in ~8 years.
Obviously a triple digit growth rate is unsustainable over the long term.

Nobody can do it in the long run unless we are talking.. err.. taking Viagra.

Ken:
Of course not but quite feasible and doable for the next 3-5 years at the very least and that is all I am concerned about.Nobody can grow at the rate of 50 to 100% per annum for the next 15,20,30 years but that is quite besides the point,is it not? As for DELL and I quote the CEO 'the fun has just started' and that is good enough for me for right now.
