Let the spinmeister's do their thing, Ed, but I'm impressed with the way Cisco's scaled their business to fit the current market.

Spin it however you want Ed.

Sequentially: Revenue flat BUT
- Operating cash flow down 30%,
- EPS down 20%
- Shareholder equity declined
- More than 100% of operating cash flow spent repurchasing common stock, for less than 0.7% reduction in shares outstanding

And that's in the last three months.

Draw your own conclusion.
