Re: dell - What a bunch of sneaky schemers. I admire that <g>. If you read Michael Dell's book, you'll see that he has never passed on a chance to make a buck. Guess that's why he's closing in on $20B net worth in his middle 30s.

Dell Computer Corp. has made more than $3.1 billion in the past three years by buying and selling options on its own stock, more than the $2.5 billion in net income it reported during the same period

What exactly does that mean? If it isn't reported as income where does it show up?
