Did Vick said what his input was while @ Liquid?
As an ex-Liquid I tell you: ZERO !

Yes he can talk the talk, but I did not see anything useful from him or the “team” that he brought along.
If anything, liquid went down because of him.

Probably did not help with having Vik as the CEO, that is for sure.

There was tremendous curiosity and interest with the early hardware. The business case for Oracle’s hosting business looked encouraging. A machine was down in Redwood Shores for six months. The proprietary interconnect simply made the box too expensive for mainstream enterprise customers. That was an early sign of trouble. Had the company made the switch sooner, the outcome could have been demonstrably different.

Jack, I corrected the story, but it looks as if we had a typo inserted that changed my speculation that they may have troubles, to they are having troubles. Thanks for pointing that out.

Was following statement a guess or based on facts and figures?

"SeaMicro and Smooth-Stone, both of which are building server systems for the data center, may also be having have troubles".
