We believe standardization has helped both Dell and our customers,

It's customers that made Dell great in the first place, and if we're smart enough and quick enough to listen to customer needs, we'll succeed,

When we acquired Secureworks, if we had taken it and made all the salespeople into Dell salespeople, we would have totally destroyed Secureworks. Instead, it remained Secureworks but with capital from Dell and access to Dell's customers. And now, it's a great business.

Dell will participate in tablets and all sorts of client devices. Our main business is helping our customers secure, protect their data and access it from any device they want to.

although Dell is executing well amid weak demand, we remain cautious on Dell given sharply lower IT spending and weakening global economies.

I think it is going to be very difficult to be a company in silos. I think the game has changed. We won't define our success by looking at the competitors but at how satisfied are our customers, how engaged are our internal stakeholders, and how good is our product pipeline.
