Dell's shares are up almost 8 percent in afterhours trading due to better than expected earnings. The PC giant announced a first quarter net income of $784 million, or 38 cents per share, on a revenue of $16 billion. Net income is up 3.3 percent year-over-year while revenue shot up 9 percent.
Reuters reports analyst expected Dell to report a net profit of 33 cents per share on a revenue of $15.7 billion.
