Dell CEO ja at A le, forgets how to count

Michael Dell, amidst lackluster growth reports and a dismal earnings warning, has fired a couple more potshots acro A le's bow. During a recent Q%26am A, Dell's CEO cited MTV's new URGE music service as one reason why he is skeptical of the iTMS market dominance over the next ten to twenty years. I gue we'll have to see how well Microsoft iro out their Plays for Sure, er URGE, er Zune project (indecisive, anyone?), and how u et users get when the Zune crashes with a OD right in the middle of a wirele purchase, accidentally charging their credit cards for 5 additional albums that weren't even in their sho ing cart.

Going further, Mr. Dell also bragged about Dell's market share statistics, stating that A le i 't a threat because they haven't broken into the list of top five market share holders. All debates as to whether A le is trying to, or even should, dominate the world with their shiny computers aside, Michael is only half right: A le's market share in the U.S. has actually jumped high enough to rank them 4th in PC manufacturers (again, in the U.S.).

How many times do we have to tell you this, Mr. Dell? I ulting A le won't make them open up OS X for you.
