    INTRODUCTION

    Dell, Incorporated is a computer hardware manufacturer and distributor. The company is one of 

    the world's largest computer  distributors in terms of both quantity of units sold and gross income,

    and one of the United States' largest corporations. From !!! until "##$ Dell deli%ered more

    complete computer systems worldwide per quarter than any other & manufacturer. (owe%er, a

     bad reputation stemming from poor customer support had seen Dell's mar)et shrin), with ri%al

    (ewlett*&ac)ard outselling Dell for the first time in + "##$. Dell is now attempting to impro%e

    it's image with -inu*based des)top and laptop models, a community*dri%en idea

    generation website, and a mo%e to less epensi%e /0D processors.

    0ost of Dell's products are I10 &*compatible des)top, laptop, and ser%er  computers using

    Intel or /0D processors. The company also mar)ets a line of (T*produced handheld

    computers hand, rebranded computer peripherals such as )eyboards and mice, and Sony*

    de%eloped monitors and tele%isions. 2ther Dell*branded peripherals such as scanners and

     printers are often designed in*house with production outsourced. Dell also distributes third*party

    hardware such as gaming consoles from Sony, 3intendo, and 0icrosoft. 2ften Dell will mar)et

    %ia the company website third*party de%ices that compete with it's own products, such as the

    &alm Tungsten handheld that competes with Dell's own /im line.

    Dell omputer was founded as &'s -imited in !4 by uni%ersity student 0ichael Dell. Selling

    assembled computers from his dormitory room, 0ichael abandoned the uni%ersity during the

     planning stage of his first in*house computer design in !45. The company was so successful

    that within two years &'s -imited had distribution offices in 6urope, and changed it's

    grammatically*incorrect name to Dell omputer orporation. 1y !!, se%en years after selling

    it's first computer, Dell omputer orporation was listed in the Fortune 5##. 7ith much

    eperience in mail order telephone sales, Dell was one of the first companies to offer computers

    for mail order %ia the Internet. The Dell oupon program made many Internet models cheaper 

    than other brands, and continues to be popular to this day.

    specify the applicable processes of the +0S and the resources to be applied to a specific

    the customer requirements and are used to %erify the quality of products and ser%ices and to

    determine success in meeting the specified contract requirements. They help facilitate a common

    understanding of specific requirements and lay the groundwor) for a strong business relationship

     between customer and contractor. The scope, depth and detail of quality control plans are

    appropriate to the effects, or potential effects, of not meeting customer requirements. 7hen Dell

    &erot Systems outsources any process that affects conformity with requirements, we %erify that

    rapidly growing, and competiti%e, with se%eral well*managed dynamic firms see)ing increased

    mar)et shares. In !!4, the ?4 billion computer mar)et had four main segmentsE main frames,

    minis, wor)stations, and personal computers. & sales represented $ percent of total computer

    Dell omputer orporation is one of the most %isible success stories in the computer mar)et. 1y

    Dell is occasionally as)ed to compare the performance of %arious des)top computer models used

     by faculty and staff to help determine whether it's time to purchase a new des)top & andJor to

    discern whether an optional processor upgrade in a new & is worth the etra cost. 1enchmar)

    scores for select Dell des)tops in the table below pro%ide numeric %alues for easy comparison of

    models.

    /lthough the scores are based on replicable tests, no benchmar) methodology is perfect. If you

    use one of these computer models, note that your computer's operating system, the quantity of

    memory installed, and other hardware components might differ, so your & might achie%e higher 

    or lower scores.

    /t their best, performance benchmar)s pro%ide impartial information that can be used to e%aluate

    and compare the performance of computer systems. Dell and the computer industry promote

    obecti%e and credible benchmar)ing in %arious ways, including participation in standards bodies

    &erformance orporation H1/&o, Transaction &rocessing &erformance ouncil HT&, and

    Storage &erformance ouncil.

    7hen properly run and documented, the benchmar)s produced by these and other groups help

     pro%ide obecti%e information that can be used to compare computer platforms, components,

    operating systems, and specific system configurations. Dell is committed to furthering industry

     practices that yield obecti%e industry*standard benchmar) results. 2rgani:ations can use these

     benchmar)s to e%aluate and compare DellG systems to competitors; systems. Dell also uses the

     benchmar)s when de%eloping new products and assessing new technologies.
