Mike, I'm primarily an investor in hardware companies which usually have a portfolio of patents. If your saying patents are not material to the success of a company I'd have to disagree. If your saying that in the software industry and particularly in this segment patents are unimportant I'd remain somewhat skeptical but be interested in further opinions/discussion. Rich

Sometimes it isn't so good to have patents because you have to divulge just exactly what the patent covers.
