SwitchGear in the News

Thanks to John Cook over at the Seattle PI for a nice post on his venture blog:

Stealth startup of the week

Two of the brains behind Microsoft’s Flight Simulator game are taking flight with a new startup company called SwitchGear Software.

Steve Lacey and Joe Stacy — who together spent 21 years in various roles at Microsoft — formed the startup in January. They are still very much in the early stages of development — trying to find office space in the Bellevue area (a process Lacey describes as “a pain”). They are also just beginning to meet with angel investors and venture capitalists.

Thanks John! Read the rest over on his blog.

It all sounds so stealthy to me.

Congrats.

Who did your SwitchGear site? A little lacking ain't it? Or is that part of the whole "stealth" thingy?

Steve said:

I put the site together.

The purpose of the site right now is as a contact point for people who hear about us and want to get in touch. As we have no information to talk about publicly yet, there's no point filling it up with fluff.

The site seems to solve it's purpose fine:

  • Announce that we're here.
  • Let interested people/potential investors get in contact with us.
  • Let people sign up give us a contact address so we can let them know when we've got more information to share.

Sounds like it's serving it's purpose to me and not really lacking at all.

Would you prefer a nice expensive flash site that basically did the same thing but cost us a bunch of money that we really don't need to spend? :-)
