But you miss the point. There is absolutely zero evidence that if options are expensed, then companies will stop issuing them. AmyJ already answered this succinctly, I have said all I want to on it. The execs like Chambers who complain about the problems that expensing options will cause truly do not understand financial markets. Well, I don't agree and I will take Chamber's opinion over yours, if you don't mind. To me, you seem like one of the "shareholders" that really has his own personal interests at heart vs. someone who really wants to see Cisco grow and prosper. Kindof like a short who secretly wishes for war. What I don't understand is that you are free to invest in any company that does not issue options or those that expense them, why don't you just move on. My fund manager believes that expensing options will kill hightech and I think that too. Lizzie
