Paul-- I'm not at my home computer, which is why I haven't been able to get you those flash prices and why I don't have the exact dates of the stock splits bookmarked. However, if you look at the chart I linked to a couple dozen posts ago, you can see that AMD went up almost 80x between 1973 and 1984. Given that AMD was listed on the NYSE in 1983, that the NYSE delists stocks under about $3 "for lack of representation," and that the price of AMD was $20 in 1983, it should be pretty clear that there were a bunch of stock splits in there. I believe there were two 3:2s and three 2:1s, which is only enough to keep the price in the same range after 18x improvement. Perhaps I'll try to guess & check my way to a url so I don't have to read one of your brain-dead comments about being delusional. Then again, given that I was in the top two percent of my class at one of the five best engineering schools on the planet, and that you still posted some tripe about not being able to "hack it" at Intel due to a Yahoo username, perhaps I should simply consider you as the one with the "reality-impairment." -Eric
