Sisco Systems - What Does It Cost to Buy That Kind of Growth?

Shares of sisco systems up a bit and hitting a two year to day after fourth quarter revenue came in eight % higher than a year ago. Chris i think this would be a negative growth story if it stopped buying companies. Over the last year, there's been about ten billion dollars spent, seven billion dollars on cash acquisitions and about two point eight billion dollars on share re purchases. It is increasingly expensive for cisco to buy the growth that it's getting.
