rkral, that was true in the 90's and even in 2000 when employees were cash out options like mad. But from 2001 onwards, options exercises have slowed down to a trickle. So cash flows from options exercises are no longer a significant portion of Cisco total cash flows. That is what I was trying to explain in my previous post.

So the cash flows Cisco has today are very high quality cash flows, almost all from ongoing operations.
