Nice article..

"But is it wrong for a company to be formed purely with the goal of being acquired?" No!

"And how about those that stay sovereign – were they just not promising enough to be scooped up?" In most cases, yes. But a small percentage of these startups are the ones that become Google, Apple, etc. (truly ahead of their time).
