Debt [Abstract]
Debt	Note 6. Debt In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we issued $600 million in principal amount of 2.75% interest-bearing senior notes (“2.75% Notes”) due June 15, 2017 and $400 million in principal amount of 3.95% interest-bearing senior notes (“3.95% Notes”) due June 15, 2022, for an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion. The 2.75% Notes and 3.95% Notes are senior unsecured obligations that rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and are redeemable by us at any time, subject to a “make-whole” premium. Our proceeds were $1.0 billion, less issuance discount of $4 million resulting from sale of the notes at a yield slightly above the stated coupons. We also incurred issuance costs of $6 million. Both the discount and issuance costs are being amortized as incremental non-cash interest expense over the respective terms of the notes. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on the 15^th of June and December, beginning December 15, 2012. As of September 28, 2012, the aggregate fair value of these senior notes was $1.02 billion using Level 2 inputs. See Note 2 for the definition of Level 2 inputs. In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we amended our senior unsecured revolving credit facility (“credit facility”) agreement. The amendment extended the term of the credit facility to June 7, 2017 and revolving loans under the credit facility will bear interest, at our option, either at a rate equal to a) LIBOR plus a margin based on debt ratings, as defined in the credit facility agreement or b) the bank’s base rate plus a margin based on debt ratings, as defined in the credit facility agreement. Under the terms of this credit facility, we must comply with certain financial and non-financial covenants, including a covenant to maintain a specified ratio of debt to EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization). As of September 28, 2012, we were in compliance with all required covenants, and no amounts were outstanding.
