Re: Dell will have to pay $1.9 billion to extinguish those puts if its stock doesn't appreciate before the puts expire over the next three years... most likely a moot point. Probably moot yes. But it sure looks bad on paper right now!<g> I guess that's why Barron did the article. Supposing Dell does have a $2B bill to pay as the options mature. In 3 years, they should add at least another $7-$8 billion in pure earnings to the coffers. MEATHEAD
