The main point of the paper is that whole Hi-Tech industry (i.e. Startups also as part of that industry) consumes more capital from the rest of the economy than gives back to the economy (especially it is true for consumer products oriented hi-tech companies). This situation was possible due to constant money issuing to the economy via finance sector. That process started in the late 70 and often called as Reaganomics. More details are in paper.

In general if issuing of money stops, the 25-35% of USA economy will disappear. Most of that 25-35% are Hi-Tech companies. So, economics of startups are in danger. VCs firms don't have hot money anymore for funding. No more easy exits such as IPO and aquisition. Customer spending are going down.

And it will become true very soon :-(

I would like to have mind mapping (like http://www.mindjet.com/) right inside excel (as well as for other office applications) but it should be tightly integrated. It seems to me such type functionality might be useful for data crunching and modeling with full brain thinking. Spreadsheets enable only logical half of brain so there is room for improvement.

All your home usual staff on the mobile gadged. I think 700Mhz Wimax connection across USA from "google" might be huge.

It like google with schizophrenia. Pretty impressive. It seems like drugs and alcohol as mind enhancer for creative people (writers, designers, painters) is obsoleted now :-)

If it was 1928 year now, would this portfolio have survived Great Depression? Almost all positions are paper actives. What do happen with the paper actives in case of huge world economical slowdown and depression? I prefer something more reliable than paper (gold, land, real estate, cash flow from the business)

"build on demand hardware" - it means build funny electronic devices(in Ponoko way)? Or it would be something serious HW stuff like PCB for custom device?

In general your start-up should provide stories that people like to talk about.You can use some ideas from http://blog.guykawasaki.com/2007/07/what-people-tal.html as start point.
