Hi Folks, I'm finally making the move back to SA. I feel a little like a fish out of water though so I could use all the help/advice I can get, especially after being away for 15 years. I've enjoyed…Continue

I could write a long and detailed critique but that won't help you much, instead I'd like to suggest that you read Save the Pixel - http://www.savethepixel.org/ - it will give you some good pointers.
Enjoy

@Peter, they do indeed look cool. I've got an Asus 10" Netbook and its pretty decent. I'm thinking this is so important along the lines of bringing more of the kids in SA online and into the 21st century so to speak. If you have the…

Interesting question I have also been wondering about this because those little laptops actually look quite cool for adults too.

What does it take to raise VC?
Folks,
I've been living in USA for 14 years now and planning to return to SA in the not to distant future. I have an idea for a .com but I have little to no knowledge of what SA VC's are looking for in a business plan. The US has very specific requirements and my assumption is that it would be the same in SA. Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks,
Faadiel
