I’ve been curious about the difference between venture capitalists (VCs) and private equity firms (PE). Granted, as Ed schools me, both are types of PE, but we don’t call the PE people “LBO’s” any more after that patchy spot a decade plus ago. Anyhow, among other things, Ed and I talk about how VCs investment profile and desires differ from PE folks.

Hard drives consume a large part of this episode, but it’s a great discussion of how you look at the business of hard drives. We also talk to the integrated vs. modular approach as a frame for iOS vs. XBox.

We’ve also setup a separate blog dedicated to the Back of the Envelope podcast. I’ll still cross-post it here.
Ed and I discuss the past year as it relates to the money world. During that conversation we talk about the rising pool of old folks, #occupywallstreet, and Japan among other things.

Ed and I are back to recording in this episode. I finally get someone to explain why we care about Europe tanking and then we talk about my angst over Microsoft. The recording cut out before we could talk about the Thai floods – hopefully my equipment will work next time.

Every now-and-then, I record something whacky or just “ambient.” I sometimes find it calming to hear little recordings of people just walking around or hanging out.
Long ago, I put together a little podcast feed called “gravy” to put this kind of stuff and other things in. Here’s the feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/gravy. Subscribe to it if you like that kind of stuff. It’ll be linked over in the sidebar if you want to check back.
I’ve got some stuff from Kim and I’s last trip (Thailand) to fit in there once I get libsyn to behave. In the meantime, there’s some downtown Austin sounds like hanging out on a nice day at a coffee shop, going to the trail of (Christmas) lights, and walking in the early evening in downtown Phoenix (while at SAP TechEd 2009).
Like I said: smoke ‘em if you got ‘em.
After voting in the Texas Primaries, Kim and I discuss the fun of the voting process. A loud motor-scooter goes by and launches us into a conversation of impolite noises.

Kim does a good job sussing out my noise problems. Also, we talk about Kim’s Chicken Cordon Bleu adventures.
