<<I have wondered how this company, over the past two years, hires and retains talent.

Anyone care to comment on this? Why would a talented engineer stay with this company while others double, triple, etc., their salary through stock incentives and retirement plans? >>

Why do you think they are spinning these startups off? Think about it.

Can a higher salary somewhere else compete with owning shares in a successful startup in a hot market segment after an IPO?

Which approach causes everyone to put out that "extra" effort?

What can make 12-16 hours days worth it?

These people have to be busting their butts making their products a success.

If they succeed, we as investors will be well rewarded too.

BTW, what do you think of MRVC's $3 million investment in NAC now?

What do you think their NAC shares will be worth after an IPO?
