Alex I know what its worth. Nothing Zip Zero Nada.

I may not have known what was going on in the IC Group for the last 18 months, but I know that chip. I was first FutureTel employee Mark had working on this chip in 1994.

So do you want the history and I am talking about the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth? You see if I narrate this history it will be about my experiences with Mark Koz.

If you want the story Alex I'll tell it, right here on this public forum. But if I tell it it will probably mess up his life a hell of a lot more than having his company go bankrupt.

So you let me know if you want all the details of my IIC/FUTURETEL/INNOVACOM experiences both the good and the bad. A few posts a week until the story is told.

You see at one time I considered Mark to be a close friend, and you don't treat friends the way Mark does. So if during the telling of this story Mark comes to me begging on his knees, apologies to me in front of the employees I hired and makes good on his promises to me. I'll have to stop my narrative. Other wise I'm going to kick him when he's down and my kicks are going to hurt real bad.

I first start working for Koz in the early 90's the company was called "IIC" Intelligent Instruments Corp. I lived in Orlando, Fl. The IIC office in Orlando employed 6 software/system engineers and the Sunnyvale office had maybe 4 or 5 Hardware engineers and a bunch of contractors. This is company the "SETTOP BOX" patents came from.
