A great question!

If that's what I learn here, then its a great piece of information all by itself.

Assuming I and some other angel offer comparable amounts, then you should go with the guy with more contacts and a better track record. That certainly isn't me. If you happen to need excellent technical advice on systems software and hardware then I can help and have amazing contacts for that.

But you raise an excellent point in that it may well be that I'm not at the right phase of my career to be an angel.

Vegas gets boring. I have existing separate long term investments I intend to retire off. No particular interest in the stock market right now. (Been there, wrote the code, made some money).

Actually, my team and I could use some help on the systems software and hardware side. If you're interested, I'd love to introduce myself via a brief call or something -- we're working in the real-time relevancy space. Let me know: [e-mail]

Hello - I'd be interested in chatting with you. I'm very interested in systems stuff (programming languages, multicore, etc.), and I also have a startup which might want to take some angel investment soon. [e-mail] is my email.
