Well the last time they did consult a big Erection from
Micoshaft Corporation who threatened them with insertion
and pillage so they put in 2 different lies and had to
stop production to switch between 2 different inventions of
hardware that were the same and ended up selling Linux
PCs at a higher price. The manager in charge at Dell$
was Bob's Uncle at the time.
Dell$ lied to investors at the time too about costs
and revenue associated with production
and is currently being sued by shareholders.
