John,

So you're saying that CSCO has increased revenues nearly two fold but there's no incremental cash from operations...even though margins have eroded only 1 point (maybe)? Where's the money going? Sure there have been increases in SG&A spending and increases in R&D - some of which is a result of minority investments (read the 10K).

CSCO is generating more cash than you think. They have taken a conservative approach in that they are writing down 100% of the cost of some of their technology investments (these are not acqusitions) as R&D.
