Hardware trio gets downgrades

Banc of America Securities cut EMC and Network Appliance to sell and Dell to neutral on valuation. An EMC-Microsoft pact also threatens Network Appliance. And BofA says it's still too early to declare a rebound in tech spending. EMC fell 4%, Network Appliance fell 8% and Dell fell nearly 3%.

** Dell COO Kevin Rollins sees no change in sluggish tech spending. But the Iraq war had little impact, and SARS' impact on business is "a little overplayed."

** Dell is working with Silicon Valley start-up Good Technology on a new wireless handheld to take on Research in Motion's BlackBerry. Meanwhile, Dell will sell Good's G100 device.
