Dell computer problems include servers

Dell computer problems include servers: "AUSTIN, TX, United States (UPI) -- Dell`s personal computer woes continued to mount as problems spread to servers and Hewlett-Packard kept up its edge.

Dell, once the industry leader in servers, lost ground to competitors in the second quarter as its server shipments slowed and it fell from the top three in server revenue.

Hewlett-Packard beat Dell on server sales for the second consecutive quarter, its growth increasing by 12 percent while Dell reported a 2.2 percent growth.

Part of the problem, an analyst told the Austin (Texas) American-Statesman, was that Dell didn`t have servers with chips from Advanced Micro Devices, now in considerable consumer demand. Dell plans to start selling AMD-powered servers later this year."

Well...it's Dell, what do you expect? I will say that Dell does offer really cheap computers, but you get what you pay for. A lot of Dell computers are not that great and don't last that long.
