They have only 2.37 million shares so far. The way it is going they won't get VLSI for $ 21! This is getting pretty interesting! 2.37 million * $ 21 is $ 49.77 million! That is less than 5 % of the $ 1+ billion offer! VLSI is looking good and going towards $ 30. IMHO Philips won't be able to grab VLSI this summer!
