In a discussion about starting a company focused on designing RF circuits and solid-state spintronic devices, the original poster outlines a vision for the business, including a projected timeline of five years until launch. The company aims to hire a diverse team, including engineers, technicians, and an accountant/patent attorney. Preferred locations for the company are Madison, Wisconsin, or Minneapolis, Minnesota, with a strong preference for remaining in the Midwest due to lower costs and potential tax breaks.Participants engage humorously, suggesting additional roles like marketing interns and even a janitor, while discussing the importance of creative advertising and the potential need for various specialists as the company grows. The conversation touches on the challenges of startup capital and the competitive landscape, with some contributors joking about relocating to areas with better climates or lower living costs. The thread reflects a blend of serious planning and light-hearted banter, emphasizing the collaborative spirit and diverse skill sets needed for the venture's success.

this thread appears to be a year old, the original poster also appears to be banned or de-regged. the likelyhood that he will ever see this thread again is minimal. so who wants to start some crazy business with me?

Why would people want lighting fast computers? I mean if today's computers eventually meet all the demands of people they may not be willing to pay for it or invest in furthering the speed factor of this technology, there has to be a greater need for speed such as true virtual reality gaming or insane internet interactivity or bioelectrical interface devices that fuels people's desires and sparks their imaginations, but without those preceeding breakthroughs people are unlikely to invest and believe in it so it should fail due to being ahead of it's time, so timing is important, timing and lots of other things that are probably far more important actually.
You are also going to need someone to cast doubt and confusion on the team and generally be there to bring down spirits and create an atmosphere of slavishness and oppression... I mean order and discipline to help motivate/spur them on. And all good companies are founded on having a good juggler, no joke, every successful company throughout history has had a good juggler somewhere juggling away in the shadows you can research it for yourself if you don't believe me, it's amazingly predictable,,, that and a whole lot of coffee, coffee being in fact the stem of all human progress.
