I'm waiting for a mkt setback. It may never come but thats my story and I'm sticking to it. BTW, back to the "rude and arrogant analysts" topic - I'm not done complaining about that - anyway just for giggles heres a suggestion for you. Put together a phony business plan and farm it out to the VCs in Silicon Valley. let me suggest Accel, Benchmark Capital etc. For a software project you are asking for about $5 mill. Somehow, just maybe, you might get in for a meeting with the gods of VC and then you can see for yourself what arrogance and rudeness is in exchange for these guys' good name and $5 mill. Of course just because they are a bunch of egomaniacs doesn't mean they know anything.... no sirree.... Patterson of Accel for example thought the entire enterprise application concept was poor - in 1991! (whoops!) Anyway I used to get called in on these things as a technical expert when enterprise software was hot. If I never see another silicon valley VC it will be too soon! I'll take the analysts thank you very much, at least in that case they want my $$ vs. the other way around!
