Dell without a 'Care' in the world

The plastic spoon model: Dell is using the plastic spoon model.

When you buy a plastic spoon at Walmart, you don?t expect service if the spoon is deformed. You throw it away and buy another one.

Customers need to understand that Dell PC?s are disposables. That?s why they?re cheap.; Posted by: furl12@... Posted on: 07/14/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
