Dell has warned its revenues could be hit by a worldwide
shortage of hard drives caused by the flooding in Thailand
US-based Dell is the world's third-largest personal computer
maker.
The earnings warning came as Dell announced revenues of
$15.4bn (£9.7bn) and net profits of $893m (£564m) for the third quarter of
2011.
Shares in Dell fell by 2% in after-hours trading in New York
Brian Gladden, Dell's chief financial officer, told Reuters
that the Thai floods may mean the company has to give priority to
"higher-end customers and products".
