mindmeld, re "that was true in the 90's and even in 2000 ..."

The CSCO totals for FY'02, '03, '04, and first 2 quarters of '06.

Net Income (GAAP) $12.67B ( 82%)
Tax benefit from option exercise 0.86
Sub-total 13.53 ( 88%)

Proceeds from option exercise 1.93
Total 15.46 (100%)


So excluding the tax benefit drops the percentage to 82%. (I posted the MSFT number of 75% earlier by mistake.)
