Not to reopen this can of worms, but...I don't know Victor, your company
just brings it out in me.  Maybe it's the outlandish claims.
What happens Victor when you can't deliver on your claim of "save you lots
of money by offering you more than one individual for a fraction of the
annual Salary of one Signal Integrity Engineer".  You're based in Irvine,
CA.  You can't rent a garage for the annual salary of one Signal Integrity
Engineer.
From your posting:
"At any point we could at least allocate 10 very experienced Designers to
handle your project bandwidth."  Must be a REALLY large group, maybe
hundreds. 10 engineers per project kind of cuts into the profit margin don't
you think?
From your web site:
"Sintegrity with over 50 man years in solving problems related to high-speed
design and signal integrity"
What you probably have is one guy with 15 - 20 years of experience that got
tired of working for someone else, and a full complement of a dozen
engineers. The average experience level of the other eleven people is
probably in the 3 - 5 year range.  Given all of that, here's something for
"The Engineers at Sintegrity" to think about: get a job at a real place
before your ill planned company goes under.

My 2 cents,

Ken

Members of the SI list -

It appears that we stumbled upon a discussion forum for signal integrity
experts in our quest to find a forum where customers seek help with SI
issues. We did not intend to disrespect the forum's rules by advertising.
For this we are sincerely apologetic.

It is regretful that certain individuals have resorted to bigotry to get
their message (the appropriate message being contaminated by personal
opinion) across. Just as there is no place for advertising in this forum, we
would assume there is no place for bigotry or racism either. Especially
among intelligent individuals.

Sincerely,
The Engineers at Sintegrity.
