Ian,..Re:.****OT*****

I agree with you completely. Maybe Alan's remarks were made to be politically correct?<g> Given his Ayn Rand roots, seems like a foreign remark though for him.

From the Reuters news story yesterday.

Re:.Dell said it expects to record a one-time charge of 5 cents to 7 cents per share against future quarterly earnings to cover a write-off for research and development expenses previously incurred by ConvergeNet.

Are these charges for research typically taken against earnings? I thought research had a special "bucket" for shuffling costs so as not to show up as an earnings write-off?

Best,
