Jurgis Of course your assessment is technically correct. However, I was responding to the embedded assumption that the shareholder of DELL would benefit in any scenario. The price has declined, but to offset the "savings" of fewer option grants are the massive Put obligations requiring the shares to be bought back at $45 regardless of how low the stock price goes. Either way, rising or falling stock price, the shareholder gets the same result....NADA. Timba
