Yes of course. And because of that we know Brocade Communications Systems Inc. and Apple Computer Inc. are the two worst abusers (see the Merril Lynch report) "

yes, thank god, apple just started abusing..., seems they will have a short career of it though, if the FASB updates rules soon.....

course MSFT employees nearly exercised more ESO's in the past two years adding more shares to MSFT share count than apple HAS ALL TOGETHER, but i guess you can call apple a big abuser..... whatever.....

and Apple has enough cash to buy back 70% of its entire share count AND options....... where MSFT doesn't even have enough cash to buy back the extra shares they issued in the last two years plus the shares they will issue in these two years......

ya.... apple sounds horrible...... i wonder what MSFT could be classified as....
