Pooling of interest accounting if it were disallowed would not impact CSCO retroactively since they paid what they did for their previous acquisitions based on their projection of their legal accounting practice results. Going forward, if the rules are changed, CSCO will acquire less, and develop more internally by R&D. That's how they will compete and grow.
