Other excerpts: <But investors say the market is sending a very clear message. "Most of these businesses are just bonfires of money," said David Roux, a co-founder of Silver Lake Partners, a $2.3 billion private-equity tech fund in Menlo Park, Calif. "The average investor is not going to pay cash value for a burning house. It's not as illogical as it looks." > <"There are companies that have raised money and are sitting on cash and their business model just totally sucks," said Frazier. "In some of these circumstances, people have to think hard about whether there's a real business or whether they should liquidate the business and return the capital to the shareholders." > ps. interesting article. rob
