Dell to Jobs: Let’s Get it On! http://www.imore.com/2008/05/29/ceoh-snap-dell-to-jobs-lets-get-it-on/ http://www.imore.com/2008/05/29/ceoh-snap-dell-to-jobs-lets-get-it-on/#comments Thu, 29 May 2008 13:23:54 +0000 Rene Ritchie http://www.theiphoneblog.com/?p=2514 “Yeah, I could take [Steve Jobs in a fight].” He’s gone done and done it before, of course:]]> Jobs vs. Dell

Michael Dell has gone done and opened his mouth about Apple again:

“Yeah, I could take [Steve Jobs in a fight].”

He’s gone done and done it before, of course:

“What would I do [with Apple]? I’d shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders.”

And we all know how well that’s worked out. Any reason to think this time will be different? Let’s check out the tale of the tape:

Ego: Both are crushing. However, Jobs’ company is called Apple, not Jobs. Edge: Dell.

Build: Jobs is Vegan thin. Dell is big as Texas beef. Edge: Dell.

Reach: Dell once made profits based on Walmart-style supply-chain “management” and low labour costs. Jobs continues to make profits based on unparalleled technological design and innovation. Edge: Jobs.

Record: APPL: $187.01, DELL: $21.69. Edge: Jobs.

Judges?

Dude, you’re getting Vulcan nerve pinched by Mac.
