I like the connections from his previous experience in the companies he was employed at.

API, Rick was the President and Chief Operating Officer for the Storage Products Group of Texas Instruments (TI).

Silicon Systems, Inc., Signetics Corporation, Teledyne Semiconductor and the American Strionics Division of Technicolor Incorporated

You can start to see some of his connections in play.

You can definetly see the military aspects of his past experience in some the companies he worked for.

This small company could be very exciting if the pieces fall in place with the direction of a well seasoned exec. in RG. taking us.
