kvkkc1: Heck, I'm just pointing out that CSCO's pro-forma earnings were $0.02/share according to the figures in their 10Q. Versus $0.03/share according to different numbers in their press release.

But now that you bring up the validity of pro-forma...

I heard a lot about investing for the "future growth" back when CSCO was bigger tho... so I'm not sure what good it's done. That's all.

Write off the cost for growth, write off more costs later for ungrowing. End up smaller than when the written off costs for growth were spent. Hmmm... Somehow I don't like the idea that we shouldn't care about that behavior.
