For some reason, I'm having some trouble with some of the steps in between. (grin)

I remember shopping for capital in '99, and we had quite a few problems getting VCs interested because we weren't asking for enough money, had a CEO who actually had 20 years C-level experience and a name that didn't start with the letter e.
About 2 years after we shuttered and sold off most of the code to various people, EMC implemented something very similar and made a few hundred million dollars off of it :/
We're seeing the beginning of "retail startups", where we can spit them out like six packs of Coke, fund them, get them bought up by Amazon or whomever. The industry really wanted to get to this point in '99. They've made a lot of progress since then.
(I'd vote for whoever is the first to do it and post it on news.yc!)
