That's what you get Graphzilla!

Its what you get for delaying your BS line of BS 9000 series cards that can't even beat your old 8000 series.

On he other hand

it could show investors the middle finger and invest heavily into R&D and plan for the not so distant future, where integrated graphics will offer performance almost equal to dicrete graphics performance and nVidia will have no market ;)

How's 16% crippling if making more $$?

I fail to see how you can say the expense cost is "CRIPPLING" if I'm still making 57% more money. Is the stock market completely retarded? I don't care if my costs go up 100% if I make an extra 200% for doing it...LOL. IF sales are up 33% and profit up 57% who cares about 16% more expenses? The bottom line is I kicked some serious A$$ correct? The even lost 2% market share while making 57% more money! That seriously rocks. You are making more money per card/chip then correct? Clearly the 2% they lost was in JUNK ASP's that mean nothing or they wouldn't have made 57% increase in profit. Am I missing something here or is wallstreet STUPID? The author should re-write this as "Nvidia rocks the world with great quarter!"...ROFL.
