albert, RE: My understanding was that the strikes are very opten adjusten downwords through one method or another when the market price goes down, I assume that you also imply that that is not Intel's practice either, can you confirm?

If a company reprices options, that would necessitate a charge to earnings. Intel has never taken such a charge.

There is a "back door" way to reprice options without such a charge, but canceling the options, then waiting 30 days and issuing new ones. I have not seen Intel do this, either.

Albert,

Re: "I assume that you also imply that that is not Intel's practice either, can you confirm?"

Albet, go "easy" on the "coffee". <ggg> I don't remember you getting your
"shorts" in a "knot" when AMD has most definitely re-priced their
options for "Jerry and Da Boyz".

Make It So,
