Get real....LU is knee deep is smart people not running to the exits....they have so much more quality loyal employees than any upstart competitors like CORV, JNPR, AVNX...etc this is not a reason for investors to concern themselves with....turning LU patent technology to market will be the future income that new management will put to bear...IMO, awaiting a great choice as CEO...I expect this will be a challenging well sought after position. I expect we will get someone of world class stature. A young Jack Welch, Andy Grove, John Chambers type.....We've got a great CFO...and we are more than willing to pay for the best...and that's what I expect. slackers are welcome to exit....

OG- The repriced LU options are going to keep/attract employees because LU will be above 46 within a year IMHO. I believe that many in the tech world were crushed enough in the recent tech wreck (not just LU) to have substantially reduced expectations of short term payoffs? What do you think? sunfish
