Mr. Kruger,

How can you even mention Yahoo and Brcm in the same breath? If your going to knock us at least use a comparable business model. What exciting new products is YHOO going to bring to market? When fibre comes to the curb, is it going to be YHOO engineers that make it all happen? Router on a chip? Fabulous new optical products? That's why the hefty PE, and if the firm does not produce it should and will get hammered. You don't want to admit or value anything this firm does. It took INTC 10 years to earn 1 bil. in revenues, this company did it 2 years. Cut us some god dammned slack!

<<probably they did not sell to BRCM, or they saw the golden parachutes? Just my thought. >>

They saw $$$ signs in the BRCM stocks offered, instant wealth, and likely more value than they would get in an IPO of themselves 6-12M out, so they take the deal(s) !! ....they also assumed it wouldn't tank like it has. This could unite the troops or divide them. Actually it might be a MAJOR positive for the LT plight of BRCM a year or more forward, really...i'm serious. All the employees will be sitting on lots of stock from higher levels so they'll have a VESTED interest in kicking some major ass. See,, all of this is just a management psych job. <<GG>>
