Re: "Once viewed as bloated, Apple Computer Inc. claims it ended the last quarter with a day's worth of inventory. That compares with six days for Dell Computer Corp., the personal computer maker thought to be the epitome of efficiency, Apple officials say." IMO Dell has mastered a delicate balance of the channel. So it's not so much how many days of inventory or who has the least day's? It's the flexibility of how much buffer is needed according to one's own business cycle's that Dell is acute to. TTOSBT
