Dell plans to add even more enhancements and new features to the new Dell Venue 8 Tablet. Michael Dell noted in a memo filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission April 1, We have plans to significantly increase investment cost of managing IT for more than 100,000 customers worldwide in our PC and tablet business to enhance our ability to compete. While Dell’s strategy in the PC business has been to maximize gross margins, following the transaction, we expect to focus instead on maximizing revenue and cash flow growth with the goal of improving long-term sales and competitive positioning. PCs account for 70 per cent of Dell's revenues. The entire PC market shrunk by 13 million boxes in 2012 as consumers adopted smartphones and tablets. Dell’s value is at $22 billion. Dell’s quarterly cash dividend of $0.08 per share will be payable on April 22, 2013.

Dell would compete in emerging markets Brazil, Russia, India and China. "In addition, we expect to expand aggressively in other parts of Asia, Latin and South America, Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Dell would hire more sales personnel and invest for growth in the PC and tablet business," Michael Dell stated in the memo.
