Sad Blind Loyalty

In reply to Rob Enderle

BTW yes I work at Dell and no I'm not blind loyal to them at all but come on guys Rob isn't a paid Dell employee and is just writing down some thoughts about what is coming up ahead from both Dell and Apple.

Now in defense to my employer you need to look and rethink thoughts that Dell can't design with style and panache in mind. Look at the LCD display that was released last year at CES and the just released Studio PC and the new Latitude business laptop line refreshed just yesterday which show a heck of a lot more style than Dell has ever released as well as the Studio has more features and enhancements than anything Apple has recently released in that form factor and format.

Looks like Dell has learned how to design and go for the high margin fluffy stuff that Apple has owned the market in the last seems forever and look for HP to fall in line right behind because that's a never ending battle there.

Apple can't afford to really go after the PC market such as selling OSX because they can't develop to cover all aspects of x86 hardware that are out there.

So count on them staying a niche company with high priced and high margin devices until Dell and HP enter every market that Apple currently owns and maybe they'll survive just like before.

They survived recent downturns only because of the IPOD and might have to again or maybe not if Dell continues their streak of finally releasing functional and sexy devices at much better price points and their upcoming mp3 player might be just as functional and better priced than the IPOD.

Let's all wait and see huh!
