He became CEO in 1987, when Intel's stock price was in the range of $0.10-0.20.

When he left the post of CEO in May 1998, Intel's stock price was ~$9.50.

A 10x return over a decade is pretty damn good.

Assuming your facts are correct, your math isn't. $0.10 -> $9.50 is a 95x return.

> A 10x return over a decade is pretty damn good

I think it was 100x
