Getting tired of this pic...

Jonathan, seriously, I'm getting tired of the use (better said, the abuse) of this pic... It's about the tenth time you use it to illustrate our financial results (well, your comments about our financial results). At least you could explain what the 'a' and the 'b' mean, and where are we at Sun. And don't let it to our own imagination...

After the huge rise in the price of our shares last week (5.76 in the after hours), I guess this is a much more appropriate picture this time:


And I'm saving this one for the day I can exercise my stock options (it's near, the shares only have to rise to $80):



Well, maybe not so near, Ashok just reminded me that I have to re-calculate my stocks after last year's reverse split. Thanks so much, Ashok, you know how to cheer me up...

New member aboard!

I mean, we have a new member of the board, by appointment of our beloved investors Southeastern Asset Management. Some people have been showing some reluctance to the election of Rahul to the board, as he served in the past in Fannie Mae and Merril Lynch. Hey, what's up to you boys? Everybody has a past, and I'd rather a man with a past than someone with no experience... and Merril Lynch was not that bat at last, they managed to sell it to Bank of America. Maybe we need someone like Rahul... (or maybe not, the shares are going high today!!!).
Anyway, I didn't choose him, it was just a request from Southeastern, so if everything goes wrong, it is not my fault...

Announcing the McNealy Master in Business and Hockey Administration

At last my talent to manage and hire brilliant people has been recognized! Most of the CEOs in the technology companies have been trained by me (somehow). Indeed I only made one single mistake along all those years... Guess who? Well, so I decided to launch a Master in Business and HR administration, where hockey and golf will be two of the compulsory subjects to be studied. Enrollment will be announced soon. Stay tuned.
