Sig, Nicely put. I like your metaphor. I too am awaiting Aug. 10th with confidence. At ~41 there is little potential downside. I am thinking of either selling Puts at 40 or buying calls at 42.5. 10, 9, 8, etc! D.Plen

Hi Sig: Let's hope that Dell proves Kumar wrong! Why worry? :)Leigh Dell -- In recent quarters, Dell talked down Wall Street to growth predictions of about 30%. Now one analyst -- Ashok Kumar of USB Piper Jaffray -- is sounding the warning bell. Kumar thinks Dell can't sustain growth of 30% because it doesn't have traction in many of its growth businesses. Kumar downgraded the company to "buy" from "strong buy" ahead of Dell's second-quarter earnings report Aug. 10. Consensus: $0.21. zdnet.com
