No it doesn't.

Realized gains and losses on investments are included in Financing and Other when realized."

Note the included. In other words, it is part of Financing and Other, we just won't tell you what part.

The only thing we know for sure is that realized gains and losses on investments cannot be greater than the line item, "Financing and Other". Anything more is a pure guess.

Gain on sale of investments (165 )

This seems like the realized loss from investments. I think this is still mostly losses in stock transactions. It may be too early to separate out ventures. When ventures start generating $1B revenues, then it will be right time to break out.

The big qs. I have are:
Like Lucent Dell financed a lot of the customers. How safe are these company financed lease incomes?

If we lost $165M in stock transactions last quarters, how many millions (or billions) are we going to lose this quarter?

Will dell be willing to throw some light on this?
