Όποιος σκάβει τον τάφο του άλλου πέφτει ο ίδιος μέσα

Documents recently unsealed in a three-year-old lawsuit against Dell show that the company’s employees were actually aware that the computers were likely to break. Still, the employees tried to play down the problem to customers and allowed customers to rely on trouble-prone machines, putting their businesses at risk. Even the firm defending Dell in the lawsuit was affected when Dell balked at fixing 1,000 suspect computers, according to e-mail messages revealed in the dispute.

The documents chronicling the failure of the PCs also help explain the decline of one of America’s most celebrated and admired companies. Perhaps more than any other company, Dell fought to lower the price of computers.

Yoffie, a professor of international business administration at Harvard. “But when you combine missing a variety of shifts in the industry with management turmoil, it’s hard not to have the shine come off your reputation.”

Σχετικά με τη Dell ας πούμε ότι από την περασμένη δεκαετία είμαι αυτός που προσπαθώ να σας πω να ΜΗΝ αγοράζετε αλλά δεν μ' ακούτε.

Και γενικά δεν μ' ακούτε που σας λέω να μην αγοράζετε κωλόχαρτα (γνωστά και ως Windows Η/Υ) αλλά εσείς εκεί. Το βιολί σας!

Περαστικά σας.

Είναι όμως μεγάλη ειρωνεία αυτό που έχει συμβεί στην Dell γιατί ο πρόεδρος της Michael Dell όταν γύρισε στην Apple ο Steve Jobs του είχε πει να πουλήσει την Apple και να την εγκαταλείψει και τώρα η Apple έχει την αξία που έχει η Micro$oft ΚΑΙ η Dell ΜΑΖΙ!!!

ΚΑΡΚΙΝΟΙ!
