Chris, > Don't feel bad dude! You're not alone - whenever I whined about all the time I was putting in and how I didn't have a life, I was told that my stock options would make me rich. They never did.

Nah, I don't feel bad at all. Life is more than simply chasing after a money bag with wings.

Which is, of course, a perfect illustration of the opportunity I missed in 2000, namely to cash in my options and buy a house.

"Coulda shoulda woulda." No use in feeling bitter about it, though. Just learn and get ready for the next opportunity, whatever it is.

> Aren't chips commodities nowdays? It's like having stock options on a corn farm..

We're using integration to try and stay ahead of commoditization. Of course, we'll end up becoming the next Microsoft in the process.
