Let me relate a little story I've been hearing. A well-placed microprocessor executive walks into the office of his boss, a capable leader who's known for his penchant for the outdoors.

The exec tells the boss that, based on his best technical assessment, there is no way a certain chip will be ready by its target date, and he suggests moving the target date. The boss replies that there will be no delays: The chip must be ready on time and it will be ready on time, he says. End of meeting >

I guess this is why the above mentioned exec exercised all his options recently, I hear.
