Ali, I am telling you that 220% of zero is still exactly zero, while 19% of a substantial inflated number is a lot.

Exactly Ali. AMD's profits for 2004 are pretty close to zero. If options really cost something to hand out, then AMD is the one who can't afford to give them away, not Intel.

Which begs the question: Why should a company with a long history of non-profitability ever hand out options? (No need to answer unless you share my view that options should only be expensed when exercised, not granted.)
