Thanks a lot for all the comments so far people. I try to keep myself open to change and I've already changed how I look at acquisitions and success. gizmo's and adventured's answers really helped. Thanks! As a by the by, I used to look at acquisitions with a lot of awe. But a lot of conversations with my father (who's run his own software biz for 29 years) made me look at the other side of a bunch of companies burning money. I didn't have an answer for how the economics could possibly work. So my awe was just from a perspective of "wow this sounds cool on Tech Crunch". I'll have a better base to discuss during my next chat with dad :).
