Where Does Dell Go After Losing 3Par?
crimeandpunishment writes "It was the big deal Dell wanted in a big way. But now that it has lost out to Hewlett-Packard in the bidding war it started for 3Par, where does Dell go in its effort to diversify its business and move into the higher-profit area of selling technology to other companies? The company faces significant challenges, largely due to its lower-end focus, and because many of its competitors beat Dell into branching out. One analyst says, 'People see [Dell] as box-pushers'."
And gets a Hole in one
Meanwhile, HP is trying it's 23rd swing at the 3par course, due to trying to charge such exorbitant equipment prices to businesses who are trying to save $$$.
Sorry, HP, you lose.
