thought I would share that I was at the mall today and went to one of the few Dell stores here in the Chicago area. I was shopping for a new PC for my mother's company. The Dell store only sold consumer PCs, but I mentioned the Latitude and he knew all about it.

Dell guy said, "I can probably get you an Inspiron with the same options for cheaper."

I said, "But they don't have the TPM chip."

Dell guy said, (to my amazement), "Yeah, that's the primary difference between the two."

I nearly fainted! He knew what a TPM was...

toro re: the burn rate:

You are right of course...as the company's employee base grows expenses will grow along with it. And Wave will continually re-invest profits right back into the company. Does anybody doubt they will have to build their own larger headquarters at some point...their own buildings? Maybe it will be debt-financed, like a mortgage, or extra cash is used...we shall see. Then there will be additional cost in supporting future operations overseas for example...IT infrastructure/equipment etc....the list goes on and on...everything that is involved with taking the company from 100 employees to several hundred or perhaps a lot more?
