Chuzz.

re: It seems to me that if the debt is paid down interest rates will drop and this in turn acts like an indirect refund.

That's exactly what should be done. If some presidential hopeful came along and said that he was going to start paying down the national debt if elected. I would vote for him, even he was from another planet. The gang on capital hill should leave things as is and pay down the debt, but they can't they have to be politicians think big government or like the republicans, less taxes. They should taking care of fiscal house keeping before anything else, it's so apparent, right in front of their noses, but they are blind.

HEY, ALL: Our man MD was interviewed this afternoon by KNX, a radio station here in LA.

No real surprises. As usual, he was very upbeat and bullish on Dell, both the company and the stock. He argued very calmly but persuasively that it's trading at a discount to the S&P 500.

The best part of the interview was a story about a class Michael took in high school where the teacher helped the students prepare tax returns. His teacher was sure he'd made a mistake and asked him to correct the return when she saw that he was reporting income of $18,000 that year.......from his newspaper route. She assumed he missed a decimal and that he actually made only $1800.

Guess what? Teacher was WRONG!

Of course, then again, so are lots of analysts who don't believe MD when he tries to tell them where Dell will be five years from now!
