A few days only after the mega acquisition of Mercury Interactive by HP, M-Systems is being acquired by Sandisk for 1.55b USD.
You are probably more aware of M Systems than Mercury though. Without knowing you are probably using one of their products: they produce all sorts of memory solution (specially flash) like Disk on keys or memory cards….
Israel high tech is really rocking lately.
At least M-System and Mercury are real companies with real products and significant IP. Not like those trendy web 2.0 start-ups that if they are lucky enough can be sold for a mere $50Mo. Don't you think?

i think many new internet companies do have a real model and some do not. I think it is not black and white as you specify
