Tee Hee - Dell can do 2 inventory turns in a 24-hr period. 14 days seems like eternity to
me. Of course the ideal is to ship the product before you pay your suppliers.


Michelle,

I have no doubt that DELL can turn inventory every 12 hours. I doubt that Covey would understate their turn.

Anyway I dont know the book business it was just a gut reaction, ok ok Im way off base.

It just seems telling that the turn is not that fast due to the need for so much storage space.

I'm long and proud! Long CPQ since 39.
Was also long DELL but blew it out at 109 'cos I believe it's over-extended.
Looking to go back in b/w 80 and 90.
