"As Cisco cut costs, the cash rolled in. The cash on its balance sheet jumped from $1.2 billion in 1997 to $9.3 billion in 2003.

Your article writer is excluding short term investment and long term investments (most of which is treasuries with expiration above one year, i.e., cash-like liquid holdings) from their "cash" calculation.

According to my spreadsheet, CSCO's cash (and equivalents) was $21.5 billion in June 2002, and is currently $16.5 billion.
