Hi rkral, I just did my own estimate, based on your assumption that only vested options have to be expensed, and don't think the expense would be as linear as you think. I think that if they stop all options grants in July of this year, then the quarterly expenses would be as follows over the next several years: FY'06 = $500M per quarter ($2B off net income) FY'07 = $400M per quarter ($1.6B off net income) FY'08 = $300M per quarter ($1.2B off net income) FY'09 = $200M per quarter ($0.8B off net income) FY'10 = $100M per quarter ($0.4B off net income) FY'11 = $0 per quarter ($0 off net income)
