Arial:

Ballmer was referring to NEW options they were issuing, not repricing old ones. The old ones are already so cheap they don't need repricing<g>. The WSJ recently reported that MSFT was granting over 5X its normal option grants owing to the poor stock performance. Looks like they "coincidentally" priced them at the 52 week low Monday caused by managerial guidance after the close on Thursday. Nice work if you can get it :-)
