Who cares? Dell nees to close up.
They make junk. End of story.

This is like Yugo starting a luxury division.

Or Wal-Mart buying Nieman-Marcus.

If I want to buy the best, why would I buy the same POS that Billy Bob in his Trailer bought for $499.

It's called brand differentation. Nobody would pay $60k for a Toyota. Yet they will oodle over a $60k Lexus that's the same car as a Toyota.

Oh Well. Dell will learn you don't take your bargain basement POS company and try to sell high end goods. Especially with the same name.

Dell, here's a clue. Nobody will brag that they bought a $2k Dell. They will be the laughing stock of their friends.
