I'll add that I thought that the Discussion of Dell's valuation interesting, though Ken Brown on the other thread lists the book values that show Dell is still a bargain compared to the internet companies, but still way too high!

Actually, it was this thread. :) I'm not sure it shows DELL is a "bargain" - they're all ridiculously priced. But Bob knows that the internuts, DELL, MSFT, INTC, CSCO, etc., are not trading based on book value. I was surprised he would even bother mentioning that. It's cash flow & earnings (well, except for the nuts), and I know he knows that a heck of a lot better than I. Odd.

Kirk: He mentioned several times not to have valuations more than 4% in any company unless you work there then it is 10% max. I might consider this when HWP goes back up! 8)"

I thought it was interesting that he said he viewed the 4% rule as applicable to all stocks at market value and not cost.

Look forward to any prize offerings you might have at your site for the summary <G>.
