Skeets, Both. the major part is just addition to capital, but the interest earned on the cash flows right to the income statement. After all, when somebody pays a co. cash, they don't keep it under the mattress like their PIII inventory. <g> And it is no small sum given that Dell is taking down debt and buying back stock, so doesn't have much in the way of free cash flow. The $180 million or so in interest each year helps a lot to bolster than creaky income statement.
