Darffot, "...they continue to buy back shares (offsetting option issues) at prices well in excess of book value, they will reduce share bloat and increase EPS"

Not according to this information,

and year-to-year share count:
Message 21382398

It turns out that the 119M re-purchased shares did not their reduce share bloat or increase EPS in FY'05. Something is fishy with this accounting and Dell's "Treasury Stock Fund".
