Luckily Dell has been a market leader in the production of reasonably 
priced Intel based PCs, and providing quality support for those PCs. He 
has not been a leader in the OS or software industry. He was late in the 
PDA market, but still can command a decent profit there, because people 
will get one when they get their PC. I wouldn't consider him an  oracle 
for the tech industry. I would watch the companies that make money from 
  software for the future of desktops. What is Adobe, AutoDesk, and many 
  other companies doing  with their apps on the Linux front. I know 
Adobe is trying to get in the game.
