UPside's Digital Titans -Elite 100 6. Michael Dell Chairman and CEO, Dell Computer Corp. For a guy who named his company after himself, Dell is pretty low-key. He has bragging rights, though: Depending on whose numbers you use, Dell is either poised to rip the No. 1 spot in PC sales from Compaq Computer Corp. or has already done it. In last year's Elite 100, Upside predicted Dell would achieve revenue of $10 billion in 1998. That estimate was about $2 billion short: Dell saw $12.3 billion in revenue for fiscal '98. From a $1,000 initial investment in 1984, Dell has expanded a garage business into an empire. And he's done so by doing something a lot of us would like to do: cutting the middleman off at the knees. And he's not just doing this in the United States: Ignoring the Asian flu, Dell started selling PCs in China this year.--M.M. upside.com
