Lane: Stock options play a big part in the inspiration of Dell workers from supervisor on up.IMO Mikie would not like to see Dell become a $40 stock after the split, too discouraging....yet his ideal is to equal or exceed IBM to the extent possible,one way being to have lots of shares outstanding. So my guess is that the stock will split when there is resonable assurance that it will not go below $50 post-split. That would mean perhaps $110,120 minimum , althought if business and the market is booming, the split could be announced before it actually reaches $110. Just a guess:(ggg) Sig

Lane, quit worrying about a stock split. Whether Dell splits or not makes little difference. Look at Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE). It closed yesterday at $46,400 per share! Can you guess why the price is so high? It's because E.P.S. have grown steadily over the years, raising the value of the shares, which meanwhile were never split. Warren Buffet, who runs the company, doesn't believe in it. Despite Buffet's adamant refusal to split the stock, BH has been a star performer for many yrs. Which would you rather have, a $20 bill or 400 nickels? Good luck. Geoff
