Title: Dell talks netbooks, diversifying, and Windows 7 Post by: Alex on October 16, 2009, 05:38:57 AM Dell talks netbooks, diversifying, and Windows 7
At a sponsored dinner on Tuesday night, Dell Founder and CEO, Michael Dell, told of his dislike for netbooks and admitted that the "biggest mistake" of his career was not diversifying the company sooner. When asked about the growing netbook market, Dell said that "a fair amount of customers" were unsatisfied with the poor performance parts and the smaller screen size when compared to traditional laptop computers. "Take a user who's used to a 15 inch notebook and then give him a 10 inch netbook. He'll say 'Oh, this is so cool, it's so lightweight'. Then 36 hours later he'll say the screen's not big enough, give me my 15 inch back". Read full story... http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/neowin-main/~3/4U3Sr12-jgs/dell-hates-netbooks-loves-windows-7 |
