Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Dyson is in the news frequently and so a dedicated thread.

.

I would like to see Dyson open up concept stores across the country (not unlike Oreck), and introduce a low-end department store sub brand that would not compromise Dysons premium pricing structure.

Excellent idea.  The ORECK business model is tested, tried and proven.  Nice to have product ideas.  Even better to package and sell them independently from 3rd party entities who do not have your best interests at heart/pocket book.

Dyson 'Absolute' DC27 now featured on Dyson UK web site.

DC23 T2 added to the UK canister range, with the following observations compared to the DC23:-

1) Telescope wrap feature replaced with adjustable wand.
2) Click to fit attachments
3) Redesigned floor tool
4) Lower price

It looks like as with the DC19 T2, it will replace the DC23 in the range - although this would mean there would no longer be a motorhead model, unless it's being introduced to the DC23 T2 in time?

Hello DIB:

Tried to view and listen but the link is broken and experiencing technical difficulties.  Reminds me of a true story.  A number of yeras ago MONEY magazine [don't know if they are affiliated with Businessweek or not] printed in its yearly Dec/January edition its 10 BEST stock picks for the future.  HIGH ATOP the list was Global Crossing selling in the $40's per share at the time.  Right before the tech bubble burst in 1999/2000.  Within 5 months the company went belly up and the investors and employees lost everything.

I fixed the link...

Hello MOLE:

IN the same vein, today I received a legal notice that a company's stock I apparently owned years ago prevailed in a calss action suit against management and the brokerage houses that hawked and hyped the stock.  I don't recall owning but apparenatly I did.  The interesting fact is that the investors received an award of $2 MILLION plus which breaks down to about 4 cents a share for each share owned.  I had several thousand shares.  Do the math.  Ironically the lawyers who sued and won got $56 MILLION.
