<< Do you realize that technology companies are now asking 15-20 times revenue for a buy out.... >> You have a good point... But is it easier to get in pre-IPO ventures. Don't you pay similer markups? I guess there is nothing like inventing/creating your own business.. unfortunately, in the high teck biz, you need more than good managers and financiers... you need the teckies.

Actually, without getting too ridiculous here, the whole concept of multiple investments in up and coming co's reminds me of Mr. Son and his " Softbank". The more I reflect on this the more I like the multiple approach. If they finally come out and decide to do one deal I'll probably talk myself into loving that too. Ain't enthusiasm great! LOL Anyhow, let's see what they come up with and go from there. The market will cast its vote. We're not doing too bad, we've so far compared JDX to SFE, ICGE, Berkshire-Hathaway and Softbank. Jeezz.... whats left. <<gg>> Have a good one Keith. C
