[FPSPACE] Questions about Mir/MirCorp

[David Anderman]

Well, after some 8 months of effort, it looks like MirCorp has only 
generated 2 paying customers. What is left unsaid is how many potential 
customers MirCorp is talking to at this moment. I would not be surprised to 
see MirCorp picking several more customers over the next 8 months.

Like any start-up, MirCorp is having the usual problems of raising money 
and finding customers. Having generated over $40 million in sales, and 
having an ample base of investors, MirCorp seems to have a better chance 
than most in making a go of it over the next few years (although success is 
not yet assured).

Besides, there may be some very interesting potential customers out 
there........ all I can say is that there are possibilities that no one 
here has considered yet.
