Michael Dell and the Computer World
It is good to be back from the big island and working again. I will tell you now there is some really nice real estate over there that is for sure. Computers are at the forefront of technology today. They represent a worldwide economy worth billions of dollars in yearly revenue. Some entrepreneurs in this tech industry who have invested in it have come out on top in a big way; and one such entrepreneur is Micheal Dell.
Hailing originally from Houston, Texas; Michael Dell was born to an orthodonist and a stock broker. Going to Memorial High School when he was young, he did not excell academically, but in spite that shortfall, he displayed exceptional business management skills in his job as a seller of subscriptions for the Houston Post. By the way if you happen to be on the big island of Hawaii and are in need of some good big island real estate then may I please recommend Sotheby’s as they have some of the best such firms on the market at this time, regardless of budget and so on.
His climb to the top began when while at University of Texas in Austin, he established a small business called PC’s Limited. It became so successfull, that at the age of 19, he dropped out of college to dedicate himself to the management of his fledgling company; the company that eventually became a company with household name recognition; Dell Computers. His garage was his office, as I recall.
