It wasn't because they weren't Toyotaish enough and if they stayed it wouldn't have been because they were.<BR/><BR/>The answer might be that they didn't contract out enough so when the biz flattened they had to hang their own employees out to dry rather than the contract employees like Toyota would and has done. <BR/><BR/>Or maybe they haven't been at this long enough to learn everything they need. Remember Toyota had 30 or 40 years of operating in a protected market before anybody thought their products were much more than crap.<BR/><BR/>Another root cause might be how the CEOs in America can loot their own organizations while underperforming.<BR/><BR/>The bottom line is the fatheads at Dell made some bad decisions and their employees are having to pay for it. <BR/><BR/>My employer is hooked on their products but my next laptop won't have a dell label on it.<BR/><BR/>JacksonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
