Well, anything less than $10K a year isn't even really worth the effort - you can buy maybe a couple of development systems for that and have enough left over to pay the tax accountant at the end of the year, but that's it. I'd rather run it on a shoestring if we're at that scale. $30K and you're talking enough float to push all the really egregious bookkeeping / fund raising tasks onto a part-time employee or a small firm. $100K is about where I start becoming interested in devoting more time to personally overseeing such a thing since I can now actually think about hiring a college student or two (or maybe even one really good hacker who made enough on the stock market that now all he really wants is a non-insulting salary doing something he likes). Up around $300K - $1M would be about the time I'd start thinking about a small office someplace and our own T1 line. :-) Jordan
