Kemble and thread, I frankly don't know why long term holders of Dell get excited at the prospect of a split. It doesn't add to s/h value. It does act as a magnet for momentum players, but this is a short term play, and very dicey at that because it is all a matter of timing. The best thinking on the issue is that companies split when they are sanguine about their own business, and so investors take the split as a bullish sign. Frankly, if Dell never split again and I were holding a fistfull of shares with the share price of Berkshire Hathaway it wouldn't bother me in the least. TTFN, CTC
