Dave,

When an employee of a company exercises options they pay the company the cost basis + taxes. The company then issues the shares to the employee or sends them to their brokerage. The employee has already paid income tax and yes, they could also be exposed to AMT.

Mucho Maas... you're making an issue of free cash flows... could you elaborate why we should be interested in such an issue and how you believe the tax benefit to Cisco should be of concern... Of course on Cisco's consolidated statement they still show the tax liability so from an earnings perspective.
