The  first  step  was  to  add  blogs  and  message  boards  in  the  hope  that  irate  customers  will  talk  to  the  company  rather  than  gripe  to  the  whole  Internet.  "If  we  don't  do  that  at  Dell.com,  it's  going  to  be  on  CNET  or  somewhere,"  Michael  Dell  says.  "I'd  rather  have  that  conversa6on  in  my  living  room  than  in  somebody  else's."
