transactions involving its own stock.

Marie,
I know this.
My point is that DELL is buying their stock at all time high prices.
If they ever need cash and do a secondary, it will have been a net drain on the cash flow statement.

In a nut shell,
I don't approve of what Dell did. IBM is doing the same thing and I don't approve there. Though IBM is bbetter positioned to get away with it over the long run.

Jim
