Dell makes a nice bit of coin (2+bil in profit last quarter according to google), mostly from the enterprise stuff, hence the kerfuffle over 3Par 2 years ago.

What I don't get is why they're submitting to a leveraged buyout.

It's Michael Dell that's trying to bring the company private. It's hardly submitting to a leveraged buyout when it's the founder and CEO (who still owns ~ 12% of the company) leading the effort.
