They could have saved a whole lot more by delivering it electronically. I signed up with ProxyVote to receive all my shareholder publications electronically. Other companies do it just fine, but 3dfx keeps wasting my money by killing trees! Maybe they could waste more by sending it priority mail next time (like the merger vote)!

With so many retail investors, I can't believe it wouldn't make sense to participate in the electronic distribution...

<<Slightly OT>>

Chip,

So I'm going through the annual report I just received tonight -- I'd certainly be interested in your thoughts on presentation.

One thing that really irks me is when mgmt tries to dress up the numbers with phony graphics. This year's TDFX report has a "graph" (as in it's in the form of a bar chart) entitled product history. The X-axis shows years, the bars are individual products, and the Y axis is clearly trying to imply cost/performance or power or something.

Even for the low bar of graphic design in annual reports, this seemed a bit excessive.
