Forgive me for being stupid but which VNL's did you buy @16 1/4?

As I understand it the LEAP's are options to buy in Jan 1999, correct?

VNLAT gives you the option to buy in Jan 1999 @ 100 per share, so if between now and Jan 1999 INTEL is at or above 117 you will break even. Realizing the time value issues provide the risk, it appears the downside is minimal since it is unlikely that Intel won't wind up in that area some time in the next 16 months.

However, one thing I have learned in dealing inthe market is there is no such thing as a sure thing, so what am I missing here??
