Do you know what the premium was on DSC? Going back to the DSC thread, I see that before the announcement, people were posting prices of about 17 1/2 (too bad SI, in its stock summary at the bottom of a post, doesn't retain the share price for the day that a post is posted). Anyway, the last price shown for DSC is 29 5/16. Now, I don't know if this was a pooling of interest deal or not (though, given that Alacatel is French, that may not be allowed for them). Assuming it wasn't a pooling deal (where the stocks of both companies move with the market, distorting the analysis), the premium for the ALA/DSC deal would be 29.25 - 17 1/2 = 11.75, which is about 67%. (Quite close to your own guesstimate). Gary Korn
