I believe you started this off saying that Intel lost money in the quarter as a result of purchasing stock. That's not considered a loss item in either pro-forma or GAAP accounting practices. As far as buying stock to supply it as stock options, that's part of the cost of doing business. They all do it, but nobody calls it a loss. Over and out, wasting time here.

Ali, You are back! Now you are criticizing Intel for the same compensation practices that every large growth company uses. AMD would do it if they could, but none of the employee's would accept a significant part of their compensation in AMD shares. Except Mr. Sanders, of course. Why don't you tell us about Mr. Sander stock option sales strategy? Why don't you tell us about how Mr. Sanders is the ultimate stockholder friendly CEO. Sanders good / Intel evil, right? How far will Mr. Sanders go to take dollars out of shareholders pockets, and put them in his own bank account? John
