Dumb question

I recently saw an article saying that Sun was going to embark on an acquisition spree with the $7.4B in cash and securities they have. One of the questions asked was whether Dell was a target. Dell has a market cap somewhere in the $85B range and a strong insider who owns a large number of shares (Michael Dell). That would be one heckuva bold (read: impossible) aquisition move. Who asks these questions?
