"Microsoft and Dell are two giant organizations, which have successfully exploited the potential of the Internet to vigorously market their products and boost their sales revenue. Continuous web upgrades and fine tuning of web-based services with a customer friendly focus has enabled both Microsoft and Dell to realize the growth figures that they managed to achieve.
