Stock Options 101:

All options issued have a date when they are issued, an earliest date they can be exercised, and a latest date for exercise. If the recipient of an option waits until after this "latest" date, the option expires worthless. That's right, worthless.

Those of you, who place so much credence on option sales, are missing a major point: NO ONE in their right mind would allow this money to vaporise (unless the options were under water, and believe me, their options are well into the money).

You guys should go search for a much better metric to measure the demise of Intel. It's very clear that you have never been issued options or, if you were, they are under water. Sheesh!
