Company open to new proposals

March 22 was the deadline for putting forth offers and the company has also declared that it is willing to consider new proposals put forth by third parties.

Dell had probably not bargained for the fact that there will be rival bids. He had other plans for the company that he had founded. He wanted to restructure the company and reshape it and turn it in to a manufacturer of software for corporations and data-center gear and he was hoping to be able to do this in an unquestioned manner from any investors. Any buyout proposal that is put forth will have to be approved by the investors. No matter what the outcome, Michael Dell will continue to be on the company board.
