Says it well.  Sorry that this thread upsets developers, but you also 
have to be businessmen.  One of the things I learned from Yuri Rubinsky 
by observation was the outcome of failing to understand that great ideas 
and mediocre products and a mediocre business strategy are not enough, 
but mediocre ideas and mediocre products and a great business strategy are.

Sad but so: when facing investors, only money matters.
