I’ve been saying the Microsoft theory because they’ve been getting rid of a lot of client products, we sold VMware which is the biggest hyperv competitor, and we are the only one of the big 3 PC companies to not be a Microsoft CSP even though we’re supposedly their biggest reseller.

Not sure about the last one. But I believe a big part of Dell will be sold to Broadcom.

MSFT doesn’t make sense. In fact I could see Microsoft getting out of the client business they have, similar to what IBM did. Dell for about 1 year sold Surface products…

I could see them spinning out ISG to someone like Oracle if they were keen since their Sun acquisition really hasn’t done much.

Not saying it won’t happen because who knows but why would Microsoft buy Dell. If they do can I transfer into CSG real quick and go to MSFT?
