Steve Vandegrift, General Partner, Techxas Ventures.

"I look forward to your continuous and inspiring Newsletter which I find is the singlemost valuable and visionary contribution to our community!"
Wolfgang Gentzsch, Managing Director, MCNC.

"I have subscribed to this electronic newsletter for some time now. Mark Anderson has an uncanny knack for being right about his predictions. He addresses computer and telecom trends and issues exclusively. I thought this might make an interesting resource for our group, as SNS offers site licenses."
Ken Fish, Director of Business Development, Allergan

"Here is a copy of that newsletter I mentioned. Best money spent in cyberspace. Period. (And Mark Anderson -- you can quote me on that!)"
Eric Smith, Senior Marketing Manager, Intel Smart TV Group

"Mark Anderson sticks his neck out, and his track record is awesome. Anderson's newsletter [is] Best of Breed in my opinion."
Scott McAdams, President, McAdams, Wright, Ragen

"Sign me up --- You mean that now Bill Gates can say he gets the same info as me? Wow."
Larry Foster, past Chairman and CEO, Midisoft Corp.

"Thanks for the trial subscription ... I'd like to become a regular subscriber, so sign me up."
Gil Amelio, Past Chair and CEO, Apple Computer

"OK -- sign me up for a subscription. . . . This is good stuff. . . . And a great marketing approach. . . . This newsletter's analysis is highly relevant to the bandwidth provider issues we were just discussing ("Who Will Win the Broadband War?"). I find Mark Anderson's SNS newsletter the best weekly analysis I see -- and I see a lot of them."
Don Norman, past Chief Scientist, Appliance Lab, Hewlett-Packard; now Principal, Nielsen Norman Group

"I look forward to your ongoing relevant and exceptionally accurate reporting and analysis of events, as well as your superb prediction of coming significant events and trends."
Richard L. (Dick) Moore, Ex-Senior VP, Technology, Zilog Inc.

"This guy is perhaps the most astute on the planet in terms of technology prognostication. I recommend a subscription (he does site licenses too). Several items below on internet access and one on the implications to the set top box."
Dr. Ray Nettleton, CTO, Formus Communications

"This is the only publication I can think of that I read religiously."
Sig Hutchinson, Producer, SuccessToday

"I have been a subscriber now for over nine years and I love every issue. I love the style, the tone and the content. I don't know how you do it week in and week out -- but you do -- and I am glad. Thank you. I appreciate your help and the insights your newsletter continues to provide me and my team."
B. Marc Averitt, Director, Strategic Business Development, Intel Corp., Software & Solutions Group Intel Corporation

"Mr. Anderson has successfully established and differentiated himself as a fairly brilliant person, possessing the unique gift of being able to mash wildly orthogonal trends together in order to gain almost heretically accurate insight into where all things technological may be heading. In the five years I've been following him, I've found his views on the world to be the most compelling read on the planet, and nowadays can't imagine developing technology and strategy without the benefit of such insight. -- Mr. Anderson has on occasion brought together deep thinkers on big problems, and has even kicked off a few projects that have the potential to substantially alter some aspect of the technology landscape. Project Inkwell is one of those projects."
John Baudrexl (Bo), Senior I/O Architect, Intel EPG Enterprise Technology Lab

"This is the best newsletter I get."
Lara Druyan, Partner, Allegis Capital
