Dell is super-confident of hitting its $8 billion sales forecast for Q1 - and that's what it told analysts at its annual conference in New York today.
The re-statement emphasises Dell's confidence in its business model as competitors suffer declining demand.
In a statement chairman and CEO Michael Dell bragged about "Dell's rapid expansion in enterprise-class systems and role in accelerating customer preference for industry-standard servers and storage products." ®
