and you aren't listening to the underlying point.

You aren't going to see the offshoring in Cisco EMPLOYEE numbers, unless you want to make assumptions that as Cisco's revenue has grown its employee count has stayed steady.

The hidden parameter in the mix is offshore CONTRACTORS. These are not cisco employees. There definitely ARE employees in asia, but there are far more contractors.

So if you can find this somehow in the numbers, let us know.

I know no way to do it.
