>>I'm not suggesting that NETA has an inventory problem<<

hmmm lets see they have 2 mil hits/day so the packets are in transit approx all the time over lapping the pings that come and the pings that go. Somewhere the pings ping ping each other and get stuck. Wonder if lost packets count in inventory storage. At that rate they have a lot of inventory somewhere between the 3 major naps. So whats the time it takes to expire a packet once it gets lost in transit? Does a packet that just keeps on travelling unable to find ots destination count in the final inventory count? So many questions so few answers :)

Software companies that emphasize release to web or giving one CD to a corporate admin supporting 1000 desktops don't have much inventory problems. The retail market is different.

Why is 91 the magic number for DSO calculation ?
