Dell & Wal-Mart sitting in a tree…

June 5, 2007 in technology with 0 Comments

Wow.   This is interesting.

Dell’s low-end PCs are just that: low-end.   I don’t think it will matter much for those that know what features are good and which ones aren’t.

I mean, really.   Ford and Chevy have low-end models.   Who cares where they’re sold or how they’re marketed.   I’m not interested in them.

My only concern is this: Can Dell deal with the demand that selling in Wal-Mart brings?   Will it have a negative impact on their other services?

Lessons from Hay Lake

Here’s a couple of things I a) learned or b) thought a lot about while fishing at Hay Lake in MN last week.

  • A long, hard and even wet day of fishing is better than a good day working.
  • I need to let other people go first more often…and be more generous.
  • Yes, you can get knocked over by a sheep dog.
  • Laughter makes everything fun.
  • I’ll always be my mom’s little boy, no matter how old I am.
  • Some of the things that I think are really funny, aren’t.
  • Not everyone has heard about John Daker and AskaNinja.com
  • A judgmental, nitpicking, legalistic spirit eats at you from the inside.
  • Good things can keep you from the important ones.
  • I really can’t sit still. I try but it doesn’t work.
  • Don’t say you’re sorry and then laugh. It’s doesn’t end up well.

Here’s some pics.
