But with the stock at $28 than isn't the use of stock as a way of acquiring less attractive ? The only positive I see here is they can maybe buyback some shares and with that 1.2bill$ could they use that ??? Thanks.... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... .....

Patrice , Thanks for the good wishes. Re the CBS recent drop my opinion is that you can get too close to these things, and if you start to worry about bumps in the road you can climb the Wall St wall of worry. Anywhere in here CBS is a great buy if you are a long term buyer ( over 12 months ). Buy it and forget it you will make money. Guten tag Dan, I was going to write you a note in German but it has been too long. I suspect that you will see very little difference as Seimens is a world company. John
