Gary - if you completely ignore dilution you can expect CSCO to have 7.5 B shares in 10 years. If you factor in dilution you can expect it to have more.

Take the case of 10 B shares in 10 years versus 7.5 B shares. Then for the same amount of market share growth reduces the value of a share by about 25%.

A billion here, a billion there, pretty soon you have a few shares outstanding.

John.
