 PROFILE
Dell Computer has taken the direct approach all the way to the top. Touting a sales model that sidesteps middleman markups for lower prices, the world's #1 direct-sale computer vendor gives perennial leader Compaq a run for the worldwide PC title. Led by founder Michael Dell -- who owns 12% of his creation and is the longest-tenured CEO of any major US computer company -- the company generates about three-quarters of its sales from desktop and notebook PCs. Its enterprise products include network servers, workstations, and storage systems. It also markets third-party software and peripherals. Despite its success in grabbing market share, Dell has felt the effects of a market-wide slump and responded with job cuts.

 COMPETITION

Hewlett-Packard Company (HWP)
International Business Machines Corporation (IBM)
