Dell Plummets after hard drive fiasco

After a late night call by Killogram to Dell Support last night to inquire about a possible bad IDE hard drive that was installed on his new computer, Dell stock was found today trading well-below forecasted levels.

Mary Sweeney of "Sweeney, Huber & Smith" comments, "We are being bombarded with sell orders, it's hard for us to keep up with the calls! We had no idea the power that Killogram has over the market...".

And she isn't alone in her centiment. "Are you telling me that my Dell stock is taking a hit because some clownshoe in the Midwest has a bad hard drive? That's bulls**t" wrote 'DellLover' on a Dell sponsored message board.

Most analysts think this is just a short-term setback and that the long-term future of Dell looks bright.

As of this writing Dell was down .08(.23%) to $34.28.
