I went for a run this morning in Indianapolis and the weather, sunrise, and scenery in the river front park/Canal Walk were perfect.

I had way too much to do today before my demos and managed to get it all taken care of.

:fuckyeah:

I got added to something similar at my company last month, actually. :notbad:

I don't really anticipate ever seeing any money from the deal, but it's a nice gesture anyway.

Dude, you never know. Company takes off and/or continues solid growth, and you could have some :notbad:

Yeah it's cool that they did it and I'm happy, just not really anticipating the company being sold or a bunch of profit sharing, but you never know. Dying industry is dying :doe:

10 years ago everyone was saying my company's market was dying and nobody would want anything to do with an add-on graphics chip in "2 years" because Intel was licensing our IP and would integrate it into the CPU.

Stock price in November, 2008: $7.47
Stock price today: $147.28

You never know what market is really dying until you go out of business. Until then, keep your head down and wait and see.

I will say, of all of our competitors, we're more "future viewing", some are totally dinosaurs. We at least make really cool shit and embrace new technologies. I'm not getting my hopes up, but it could be something nice in the future.
