OT IBM "Still, IBM, the world's largest computer company, beat Wall Street estimates with first-quarter earnings of $1.0 billion, or $1.06 per diluted share. Analysts had expected the company to earn $1.05 in the quarter, according to a First Call survey. The results represented a decline from a profit of $1.2 billion, or $1.16 per share, a year ago. IBM's earnings per share would have declined more sharply if not for the company's aggressive share repurchases, which totaled $1.8 billion in the quarter." Is that called cookin' the books or what? biz.yahoo.com
