secamend9 Your estimate of earnings is quite close to mine. The street has (or had) them coming in at $1.07, down from last quarter. That's not going to happen. They will be up at least as much as last quarter, and then some... So, very empirically speaking, I was guessing about 1.20 - 1.25, and if pinned down, 1.22. (all figures pre-split) This is why I've tried to warn people who are selling DELL short based on historical PE. I know that the charts say that DELL is currently at an all-time high PE. But the fact is that the PE is difficult to measure because of 1) the continuing buy-back which makes the float a guess; and 2) because DELL is increasing their earnings so rapidly, that all figures for projected earnings are extremely low. Thanks for the input. Hope you're staying around the DELL scene for a while. 3
