### Comment:
The thing about buybacks is it implies the company cannot do anything better with the money, Dell could've reinvested in other areas to improve their business, but it wasn't as profitable

### REPLY:
It's just a different way of doing a dividend. 
  
 Doesnt explain the price difference. Time to do some serious digging. If michael dell is anywhere like lampert at sears then this is going to go into the shitter,  good money on puts
