When one looks at an investment of this nature, you have to consider all the factors. This deal was structured on May 15, 1998 or that is when the news was released. A strike price was of course negotiated by the two companies. This is a dynamic situation and you are looking at it in a stagnant way as if the price are per what you see know.

Your analysis is correct, but Boob your using the wrong stock prices for the shares. As with all of these deals the valuations must be adjusted at the time of the merger. Again, your math lesson is correct, your stock valuations are moot.
