Dell optimistic about upcoming vote
Michael Dell, founder and CEO of Dell Inc, said he is "optimistic" about the upcoming vote that will decide if the company will go private.
The Texas-based company will accelerate investment after the buyout issue settles, said Dell, adding his company is eyeing to become a top business solutions vendor which provides hardware, software, security and consulting services to its customers.
"We have prepared a number of plans for the outcomes of the vote to make sure the company's business goes smoothly. I am excited about the vote," he said.
Shareholders are scheduled to vote on Sept 12 on the buyout that may cost the CEO and his partners at least $24 billion.
