Dell cares about making money. No more no less. If Michael decided that
he could make more money by delivering CP/M on the machines instead of
Windows, we would all be buying new manuals today.
I don't much like Dell machines, with their constant drive to cheaper and
cheaper pricing, with a corresponding dive in quality, but I can't blame
him for maximizing his return on investment. I would do the same thing in
his place.
