After the math department at the University of Texas noticed some of its Dell computers failing, Dell examined the machines. The company came up with a unusual reason for the computers’ demise: the school had overtaxed the machines by making them perform difficult math calculations.

Now ain't that rich!!!! What the hay are computers for?
I wonder what Michael Dell thinks these days after that comment he made several years ago that Apple should sell all their assets and return the money to their stockholders, or some such thing.
And look where Apple stock is today and Dell compared to what they were then!
