you can purchase the new 5 year and 10 year awards too - plan to do that?

I don't think so, although they do make a nice set next to each other (other people on the Dev Excellence team have 5 and 10 year crystals so we set them up next to each other to compare). But it would cost $400 or so to buy them both.
