Indeed. While I may like Macromedia products, people, business practices, etc; I won't be buying any of their stock because it is a horrible investment right now. Soon all publicly traded companies will be forced to expense their stock options. When Macromedia is forced to expense their stock options their stock is going to drop like a rock. Macromedia's fiscal 2002 options expense was a whopping $1.57 per share. And keep in mind that the company is expected to earn on a pro forma basis only $0.29 in fiscal 2003.
