When the AI boom arrived and demand for data center infrastructure exploded, Dell was already positioned at the center of it — not by accident, but because of bets placed quietly, years earlier, away from quarterly scrutiny. There's also a broader reflection on how easily we judge companies, and people, based only on what's visible right now — the "that place is finished" instinct — and how often the real work is happening somewhere below the surface, unannounced.
