Given Dells lack of a decent android presence I don't consider this to be very big news. None of their android products has sold particularly well.

This does not surprise me at all. Dell might as well be called Microsoft/Dell.

They have never really had any alternative but MS products that I can remember.

Dell is so far up Microsoft's butt I'm surprised Michael Dell hasn't asked Steve Ballmer to marry him....

After their lease and support scandal is Dell still that relevant?

What's your definition of relevant? $60b in revenue, $11b in profit somewhere in the ballpark?

2.63 billion (FY 2011) so I guess so. I had not search out the data before I asked. Still relevant; just less than years past (esp in the server arena), but they seem to be on the rise again as a whole.
