Dell's move into consumer largely comes as a result of the Web, said Kurt King, PC analyst at NationsBanc Montgomery Securities. By selling more PCs on line, Dell is able to cut its costs dramatically and therefore make a profit on these machines. Before, a PC maker could build market share and revenue, but not turn a magnificent profit, he said.

"You build your top line, but you dilute profitability," he said. Dell actually has been growing units in the consumer market at 80 percent in year to year comparisons, faster than Gateway. Nonetheless, Dell's consumer market share is half of what it is in business PCs.
