David, I like the VC idea. I especially like the comment that investing VC is better than a buy-out. This is a great way to get ahold of some promising business plans, stay on-top of current and future market trends, and maybe even a way to help fill up the Scotts Valley campus (I can imagine some rent for equity deals). I like can see the idea of having the tools for building e-commerce infrastructure along with some cash to get things started. Sounds like a good mix for a "value added" venture capitalist.

It looks like we may see the first VC press releases fairly soon, the PR had this quote:

"There are numerous quality investments we can make right away which are central to our strategy, which is to help companies conduct business over the Internet," said Fuller.

Looks like the market liked the idea too.
