"...and net earnings of 37 cents per share" Earnings? Dell reported $1.2B income before taxes. However, they paid $2B cash buying back their stock, and re-issued half of that to employees who exercised their options. Therefore, Dell effectively has a loss for this quarter, and even paid taxes from non-existent income, another waste. "Wow!! But, I'm not surprised... :o)" Me either :-) - Ali
