The surge in Cisco Systems Inc.'s stock prompted bearish traders to
cover short positions in the August 100 call. The contract gained 11/16 to 1
9/16 on composite volume of 8,734 contracts, compared with open interest
of 20,309 contracts. A Cisco options trader expects the stock will now
trade around 100 because the stock tends to trade at the options strike
price that has the highest number of outstanding contracts.

Maybe DELL will acquire C$CO in the next few years.

LOL...nice one. A distribution company aquiring an equipment provider. Thanks for the laugh Craig. You made my day.

<No need...yet! Maybe DELL will acquire C$CO in the next few years.>

Shouldn't you be on the CPQ thread, bragging about DELL's results ? The only connection to CSCO is that DELL is the 2nd largest internet e-commerce site in the world. It certainly helps maintain those 22% margins, but DELL still can't touch CSCO's 65 % gross margins.

Congrats on your DELL success.
