William,

Re: elimination of tax on dividends? In favor of, if enacted
will probably begin issuing dividends

This is what caught my attention when I listened to MSD on CNBC. Many analysts stated that many cash strong companies would issues dividends if the double tax is eliminated, but I never heard anyone from DELL go on record until now stating they would probably begin issuing a dividend.

Pretty cool.....

Cheers
