mike, while i don't agree with chuzz on some key issues, a light bulb did go off yesterday rehashing the old dell q1 market share loss. remember when you asked him for data? he actually gave it up front - it just wasn't what i was expecting.

his data was yoy market share growth. since both q4 and q1 were positive for dell, it factored out seasonality and did prove his point, albeit, not in the most obvious manner. but, i shoulda picked it up.

the market share loss was 250% greater than the prior year and reversed a very positive trend for dell... but bgr has his head in the sand, clicks his heals and repeats, "skeets can't take ratios of %s" and thinks that makes me wrong ;-) some people just don't it. or anything. he has backed off his zero sum short term trading game w/o admitting he was wwwwwwww-rong. some folks have hard heads ;-) uh, -ng-
