Frank, he is the latest in a very long and foolish line.

I am glad it's his 401K. Imagine if it was social security money and the government had to back up these kind of gamblers.

This way he only throws his own money our way.

Frank,

It is possible to make money shorting Dell. People have done it. Over time, you discover that the pennies you make shorting Dell are not as big as the C-notes you make being long Dell. The market timers can also make money, and they might make dollars to the pennies that the short-sellers make. I prefer the C-notes, thank you.

The financial model Dell has implemented may be unprecedented in the history of capitalism.
