Washington, DC March 1999 -- In an issue dedicated to Computer and Internet Entrepreneurs, Prospect Technologies and Bill Lewis were featured in a recent issue of the Princeton Alumni Weekly (PAW).

In this issue of the PAW, the story relates:

“Internet stocks have become one of the hottest business stories ever, prompting comparisons to inventions like the telephone, the automobile, the airplane. Investors in these companies have watched their holdings skyrocket (and plummet) like fireworks, sometimes in a matter of hours.”

“Companies like these and many others from Silicon Valley to Silicon Alley -- California and New York, respectively -- are being fueled by brain power, the vast majority of it from under-40 (and frequently, under-30) engineers and computer scientists lured by the excitement, the challenge, and, yes, the riches they offer. Be they from Princeton, Harvard, MIT, or CalTech, college graduates have surged into the computer industry. Its siren song is as loud as Wall Street's a decade ago.”

“The Princetonians (mostly but by no means exclusively young) who have flocked to the front lines of the computer industry are no different from their peers throughout the industry in many ways -- competitive, eager, and enjoying the pursuit as much as the reward that may or may not lie ahead.”
