Don, I have voted against this every chance I have gotten over the last 3 or 4 years, though I don't always get a chance. Guess I should be sure that they mail me my forms on time. If we knew for sure that some of the money was going to be used for an acquisition, then I would say yes to it. But if just for stock options then no way. The people who really benefit from them are the board who get tons of them for pennies, not the regular employees who need them the most. Hopefully in a month of two we will all forget about this when we are up in the teens or higher after those 2-3 million chips a month are being sold. Does this seem high to anyone else? I seem to remember that when S3 was hot and in top tier OEMs, they were only selling about 4 million max a quarter or was it 4 million for 2 quarters.
