I still think Dell is a great company with great products and a good reputation. I also think MD has a pretty good vision for the future. That said, the strategies being laid out to achieve that vision are abhorrent. This company is now solely driven by the board and the street with initiatives changing every quarter after earnings. The only way necessary risks can be taken is if MD bought it back and took it private. That said, a lot of this is dirty laundry and most people still really respect the brand.
@1tgk+1o1RfsCZ makes a good point.
