Love hearing this! I co-founded the first MHacks and after going to 10+ hackathons, I think this will become a trend. Hackathons are held in nearly every major city and every college now. More prize winnings, more hackers to meet potential cofounders and you're ripe to see just a few more startups.

I hope the hackathon winnings become more transparent (not yours)...I hear many complaints from folks who have put a lot of effort to only see the "prize" or not the "prizes".

Brain - What are you thoughts on when to take the investment vs cash?

It's a great opportunity, thanks a ton for putting in the work to create MHacks! Without people like you I wouldn't have these opportunities!
