GVTucker, re "In refusing to start expensing options, I noticed that Andy Bryant stated that fewer employees would receive options if they were expensed. What an absolute crock. "

Andy Bryant should have said Intel didn't wish to put its EPS in an unfavorable light .. when compared to other companies that don't expense .. and that it would expense when the FASB requires all companies to expense.

That would have been more credible, but Craig Barrett wouldn't have liked that response. :-)

JMO, Ron

P.S. I missed that Bryant refusal. Do you have a link?

GV, Steve Jobs received $75 million dollars for driving the stock down from $50 to $25 in four years.

Yes, that's right, downward.

It creates a rather nasty stigma on what was an otherwise respectable CEO.

Time for Congressional reform.

But the $75 million dollars were not option gains, according to Mercury News.

In fact, if these were options, he'd receive $0 dollars because there was no gain.

He got paid $75M for having a pulse.
