LoD 1/4 billion is a lot. DELL was down about 9% Yesterday, and is down 17% from the high. .17 * 14,000,000,000 ~ over 2 billion When you start to consider that kind of loss over a few week period, then selling a lot makes sence. MD realizes, or I hope he does, that what he can sell and what he has sold is what he will have. The $12 billion is a lot, but it is not cash liquid, and a lot of the stock is likely locked up for a period. DELL is no different than any other stock. Take CSCO, that one is now down over 30% from it's high. That would be over 4 billion for MD. So I understand his selling. The question is, Do you ? Jim
