The money people don't seem to think it was a smart move either.

Then again I didn't buy eBay during the .com era, so what do I know.

Basic issue I have long complained about...CEO's and Boards of directors that treat the company treasury as found money thats theirs to blow on whatever they wish......CEO bonuses just reinforces that fact....

I am certain there is better and cheaper ways to do it but then looks who is blowing that money and look where it came from...it speaks volumes.
