Jim,

Sorry, no go. Dell has put obligations to buy shares... at $45 or so. And they have to do this whether they want or not - the put buyers are not going to allow puts expire in money. Dell can then retire the purchased shares, but the problem is they would be paying $45 and not $24 per share.

You are right that they made some money selling these puts.

Jurgis - options are confusing, aren't they? and I don't mean the employee options. :-))))
