Hi there. Please don't copy sections of websites and paste them into Wikipedia articles; that is considered copyright violation, and it will be deleted wherever it's seen. Wikipedia's articles have to be written in a neutral non-promotional manner, based on reliable sources - if you would like to improve the above article using researched sources, writing in your own words, that would be great, but please don't copy other sites and paste it here. Thanks. Tony Fox (arf!) 04:52, 26 August 2010 (UTC)


 * I appreciate that you're trying to improve the article, but this is still highly promotional, and copying a long quote from the founder is not really a great way to build an encyclopedic article about the topic. I really suggest that you take a look around for magazine, newspaper, and other articles - not press releases, as those aren't really considered a good reliable source - and write that into the article. Take a look at the links in the welcome message above to help learn how best to write for Wikipedia articles, and then hunt down some good sources other than the company webpages to develop the article further.
