Apple, Dreamworks, Yahoo!: Do $1 a Year CEOs Really Boost Stock Value?

Ok Mr "10Q Detective," so AAPL grew its PPS 13% last year. But for the last 6 years, AAPL has grown its PPS about 1200%. Now how does that compare with the other companies you mention? I think that SJ's compensation, all extras included, compares pretty modestly in terms of compensation cost per $ increase in PPS, when compared to the others.

A 1200% increase in shareholder value. Sod the Lear Jet. Give him a 747, all trimmings included, with gold-trimmed engine cowlings, and backdate his options to 2002 for all I care. The guy is worth 10x his weight in gold.
