Not really, but I started watching it halfway through. The quantum physicist

The fact that NBN was the hottest discussion and the closing subject is
actually quite telling... NBN is not an innovation, is merely infrastructure

It's great you're motivated.
I'd echo other people's suggestions, and think that 37 Signals have a

I've done a bunch of things over the last 10 years, most of which I
did when I was employed full time. I did also leave full time work to
start a company, and as Phil says,
ote coach could analyse and provide feedback on
a persons performance in what ever activity.
I am sure with a little thought there are plenty of other great examples of
ways that serious bandwidth couple be put to good use (other than just
mindless consumption of multimedia).

Many of the grants especially the NSW grants specifically exclude
companies younger than 12 months. I own a light company that is doing
well and is already exporting. We did not qualify for any NSW Export
grants as we are only 10 months old.
Government grants

the payments as they have in both NSW and Queensland.

Personally, and you might choose to listen more to Richard Hayes, but
I wouldn't skimp on the legal side of things. I'd really speak to an
expert, especially when it comes to a shareholder agreement. If you're
serious about this business, and plan to have it grow, then set up
ite is not any much worse (or better)
than if you spent $5,000 on the contract.
