Jacob, You mentioned that Qualcomm was cash-flow negative in 2001. By my calculation (operating cash flow minus capex minus tax benefits relating to employee stock options), the company generated $577 million in free cash flow. What calculation are you using? I'd also like to know why stock options are anti-dilutive in years when there is a loss in GAAP earnings. I've seen that explained repeatedly for all companies but I've never understood why. Even after it's explained, I don't know that I've got enough accounting know-how to understand it, but I'll give it a shot. --Mike Buckley
