Incentive Plan (the &#147;2000 Plan&#148;). The number of shares issuable under the 1992 Plan has been,

to options or stock awards outstanding under the 2000 Plan as of March&nbsp;9, 2007 (the &#147;Effective
Date&#148;) and restricted stock unit awards granted under the 2000 Plan in exchange for
outstanding options that were surrendered as part of the Registrant&#146;s stock option exchange

Plan pursuant to the provisions thereof; provided, however, that those shares of Common Stock
issuable pursuant to options outstanding under the 2000 Plan that were surrendered as part of
the Exchange Program were not added to the share reserve of the 1992 Plan. Accordingly, an
aggregate of 22,332,809 shares (the &#147;Prior Shares&#148;) that (i)&nbsp;were subject to outstanding
options or stock awards under the 2000 Plan as of the Effective Date and have since reverted

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the
Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and
any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in
the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20&nbsp;percent change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the &#147;Calculation of Registration Fee&#148; table in the effective
Registration Statement;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not

Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such

Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the

permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by
a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
this Registration Statement also registers any additional shares of the Registrant's common
stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), as may become issuable under the
Registrant's Amended and Restated 1992 Equity Incentive Plan (the "1992 Plan") as a result of
any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event effected without
consideration that increases the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock.
(2)
Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the amount of the registration fee pursuant
to Rule 457(h)(1) under the Securities Act. The price per share and aggregate offering price
are based upon the average of the high and low prices of the Common
Stock on November 8,
2007, as reported on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
(3)
The Registrant has amended and restated the 1992 Plan and has terminated its 2000 Equity
Incentive Plan (the "2000 Plan"). The number of shares issuable under the 1992 Plan has been,
or will be, increased by the number of shares of Common Stock that (i) were issuable pursuant
to options or stock awards outstanding under the 2000 Plan as of March 9, 2007 (the "Effective
Date") and restricted stock unit awards granted under the 2000 Plan in exchange for
outstanding options that were surrendered as part of the Registrant's stock option exchange
program that terminated on May 10, 2007 (the "Exchange Program") and (ii) but for the
termination of the 2000 Plan, would otherwise have reverted to the share reserve of the 2000
Plan pursuant to the provisions thereof; provided, however, that those shares of Common Stock
issuable pursuant to options outstanding under the 2000 Plan that were surrendered as part of
the Exchange Program were not added to the share reserve of the 1992 Plan. Accordingly, an
aggregate of 22,332,809 shares (the "Prior Shares") that (i) were subject to outstanding
options or stock awards under the 2000 Plan as of the Effective Date and have since reverted
to the share reserve of the 1992 Plan as described above or (ii) are currently subject to
outstanding awards granted under the 2000 Plan and which may in the future revert to the share
reserve of the 1992 Plan as described above, are being transferred to the 1992 Plan.
(4)
The registration fee for the Prior Shares has previously been paid under a separate
registration statement as described below, and pursuant to Instruction E to Form S-8, no additional
fee is paid with respect to these shares:

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE TO CONTENTS OF REGISTRATION STATEMENTS ON FORM S-8 NOS. 333-47185, 333-92507 AND 333-110075.
The contents of Registration Statements on Form S-8 Nos. 333-47185 filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "
Commission
") on March 2, 1998; 333-92507 filed with the Commission on
December 10, 1999 and 333-110075 filed with the Commission on October 29, 2003 are incorporated by
reference herein.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
(1) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(a) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the
Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and
any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in
the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in
the Registration Statement.
Provided, however,
that paragraphs (a)(i) and (a)(ii) do not apply if the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with
or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(b) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(c) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(d) That, for the purposes of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities
Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant
undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this
registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the
purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following
communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered
to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the
offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the
undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned;
Table of Contents
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing
material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of
the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned
registrant to the purchaser.
(2) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to
Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(3) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by
a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant
certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for
filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by
the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Sunnyvale, State of California, on
November 9, 2007.
