I just don't understand business. How does laying off 1,700 people save 200 million every year. They sure must have been paying them allot! lol

Let's round it up to 2,000 for easy math. That's 100,000 per person - not unreasonable for hi-tech salaries and overhead per person.

200,000,000 / 1700 = ~$117,647. Given salaries, office space, benefits, equipment, etc. I'd say they are fairly accurate.
