ed,

Re: <<Just be careful, the MM may hold the stock price , and the premium will degrade faster between now and the the expiration date>>

Sorry to be naive, but can the MM hold MSFT price? Today, 25 mil shares for $3.9 bil. Sure, any of us could staunch a flow like that for a day or so <g>, but the MM has to keep it up indefinitely. I've seen it done on smaller cap stocks many times, but seriously, can MSFT or DELL be held on days like today?

Thanks-
Ben
