I definitely benefited from the article though - seeing as how this is the endgame for so many startups it is somewhat surprising that we see so little about this part. I guess its a little like the wedding night - everyone knows you got married, but that bit is held very close. Is it b/c of non-disclosure agreements? Tons of companies have gotten acquired and aside from the reddit's story a few years back I don't remember seeing or reading alot of those tales, though I wish I could. It would make great bedtime reading or anytime reading really, something to help keep hope and keep going. And I agree, $1 million would make my life better, but really, I thought the first $20 million was supposed to be the hardest.
