Re: Keep Perry Grace     28-May-09 04:12 am    
I was Zilog's in house graphic designer for 9 years starting with Ed Sack back in the mid 90's. At that time Zilog was trading in the $45.00 range... Looking at it now in it's pathetic state is so sad! This poor old tired warrior has been boarded, raped and pillaged by CEO after CEO after Ed Stepped down... each one promising a better tomorrow with new technology and top notch management only to leave in failure as their golden parachutes unfolded. When I signed on, Customers were waiting for the doors to open every morning to buy. The market went south when demand crashed for 8bit and Zilog never recovered! Am I wrong? Anyone? Yeah, there were those who never liked Ed because he ran a very tight ship... silver duck tape holding the torn carpets ... very little ambiance :) ...but he did turn a profit for many years.
It's just sad to see this once proud company implode in on itself by total executive mis-management. We never could crawl out of the 8bit pit we were in... Rest In Peace old friend
I won't forget you and the loyal troops that loved you so...
