Hi rudedog, Re: I think Dell is heading towards 50,000 units a quarter, CPQ is doing about 300,000 units a quarter Do you know what the previous quarter's numbers were? In other words, what the respective growth factors are in the server area? (Dell only recently started selling servers, right? Is there enough data?) Thanks, KenB PS Heh, every sentence above ends with a question mark; better not end differently, now, shall we?

hey, rudedog! what are your thoughts on the IBM announcement re new UNIX software to be used by Dell...see post 74749. "IBM today announced a major UNIX operating system initiative with a number of industry partners. ... The result will be a single UNIX operating system product line that runs on IA-32, IA-64 and IBM microprocessors, in computers that range from entry-level to large enterprise servers. ... A number of computer systems manufacturers announced their plans to use the new UNIX software. They include Acer, CETIA (a subsidiary of Thomson-CSF), Dell, Groupe Bull, ICL, Motorola Computer Group, and Unisys Computer Systems. ..." is this really a "major" deal for Dell?? as always, looking forward to your observations.
