Hi Dorine, I haven't been keeping up too well here the last couple of days, but there was speculation going on for a while that DELL would use its newly authorized shares to make some acquisitions. I know there was mention of Unisys, which currently does some of DELL's on-site service, but what about the IBM-style business services like consulting, etc. One company that comes to mind is Computer Sciences (CSC). They've been a somewhat frequent target lately and although I admit I don't know a whole lot about them, it seems like they might be the kind of company with the kind of size and reputation that could help DELL compete more effectively against IBM in certain situations. Any thoughts? Anyone? Rich
