LOOK Beautiful For LESS

As of 2009 Dell Inc has acquired ten companies (eight of them based in the United States), purchased stakes in four companies, and divested two companies. Dell has not released the financial details for most of these mergers and acquisitions.Dell's first acquisition involved ConvergeNet Technologies: on September 8, 1999. The company acquired Alienware, a specialty computer-desktop manufacturer, on May 8, 2006 for an undisclosed sum and integrated its technology into the company's high-end product lines. The acquisition of Alienware introduced several new items to Dell products, including Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) microprocessors; all of Dell's previous CPUs had come from Intel. To prevent cross-market products, Dell continues to run Alienware as a separate entity but still a wholly-owned subsidiary. The company acquired EqualLogic on January 28, 2008 to gain a foothold in the iSCSI storage market. Because Dell already had an efficient manufacturing process, integrating EqualLogic's products into the company drove manufacturing prices down. From 1999 to 2000, Dell purchased stakes in four companies. It also divested two companies, in 2000 and 2008, selling parts of the company to other companies. Dell's largest acquisition was New Hampshire-based EqualLogic in January 2008 for $1.4 billion. The company made the most acquisitions in any one year in 2008 with three: EqualLogic, The Networked Storage Company, and MessageOne. On September 21, 2009 Dell announced its intent to acquire Perot Systems (based in Plano, Texas) in a reported $3.9 billion deal.
