vmw would have to be in the 60's to get a good boost like rvbd did...rvbd is normally $25 on average but it was brought down to the mid teens before it announced better earning last quarter, and this quarter earnings were better than expected again...vmw is down but not all that much down..no way im holding long into earnings, i'll wait and see what happens, you just might be able to buy vmw in the mid 70's after earnings tomorrow
