Michael Dell, founder and CEO of Dell Inc, said he is "optimistic" about the upcoming vote that will decide if the company will go private.

The Texas-based company will accelerate investment after the buyout issue settles, said Dell, adding his company is eyeing to become a top business solutions vendor which provides hardware, software, security and consulting services to its customers.

"We have prepared a number of plans for the outcomes of the vote to make sure the company's business goes smoothly. I am excited about the vote," he said.

Shareholders are scheduled to vote on Sept 12 on the buyout that may cost the CEO and his partners at least $24 billion.
