I'm all grown up with a life.  That's why I understand that falsifying financial documents for the purposes of fraudulently obtaining a bonus is THEFT.  It's THEFT, and they should have to make restitution to the owners (shareholders) and face the possibility of prison (in reality 3yrs probation because they've likely learned their lesson).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[andy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 17th 2007 11:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell admits to 4 years of financial malfeasance -- up to $150 million to be scrubbed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</guid><description><![CDATA[Anyone else thinks he looks like Jefferson D'Arcy from Married With Children in that photo?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 17th 2007 9:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell admits to 4 years of financial malfeasance -- up to $150 million to be scrubbed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</guid><description><![CDATA[No.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[johnzilla]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 17th 2007 10:05AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell admits to 4 years of financial malfeasance -- up to $150 million to be scrubbed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</guid><description><![CDATA[Your comment posts amuse me.  Do you realize that out of 32 billion dollars in revenue that 150 mil over four years is pretty much a grain of sand in a vast desert?!?~!  There was nothing malicious going on and they are only asking Dell to correct there numbers over the next few reportings.  Despite your hype, no one is going to jail, no one is getting shut down.  Dell is and always has been and upstanding company.  Lets see some investigation into HP or Apple's reporting of income and compare the numbers.  This is only news hype.  Do not fall into that trap.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Julie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 17th 2007 1:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell admits to 4 years of financial malfeasance -- up to $150 million to be scrubbed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</guid><description><![CDATA[Misstating revenue is defacto stock manipulation and the SEC will slapp them down quite hard for it.  That slap may well include jail time but I doubt it.<br><br>Dell shareholders also have cause for action both for the manipulation, since the overstatements prevented the stocks from being valued correctly and if bonuses were issued on a performance basis.  Thaking those bonuses would be comitting fraud.  That too is a criminal offense.<br><br>Don't speak so soon that no one is going to jail and that this is media hype.  Manipulating revenue reports is serious criminal fraud.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[wmd]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 17th 2007 1:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell admits to 4 years of financial malfeasance -- up to $150 million to be scrubbed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/17/dell-admits-to-4-years-of-financial-malfeasance-up-to-150-milli/</guid><description><![CDATA[I kinda liken Dell to being the In-Laws who've overstayed there welcome.
