]]> Comment on What if a laid-off employee refuses to return his laptop to the company? by Mike http://www.foundersspace.com/team/what-if-a-laid-off-employee-refuses-to-return-his-laptop-to-the-company/comment-page-1/#comment-1831 Mike Mon, 20 May 2013 09:38:47 +0000 http://www.foundersspace.com/?p=6315#comment-1831 I was fired from a Fortune 500 company and was treated quite unjustly. On top, they didn't pay me my proper severance. I have yet to return the company laptop after 4 months. It does not contain any confidential information. They asked for it about 3 months ago, but have never heard from them since. Can I just keep the darned thing? I was fired from a Fortune 500 company and was treated quite unjustly.

I have yet to return the company laptop after 4 months. It does not contain any confidential information.

They asked for it about 3 months ago, but have never heard from them since.

Can I just keep the darned thing?

]]> Comment on Do I need to register as a foreign business operating in Florida? by K.C. http://www.foundersspace.com/company-formation/do-i-need-to-register-as-a-foreign-business-operating-in-florida/comment-page-1/#comment-1830 K.C. Mon, 20 May 2013 06:34:31 +0000 http://www.foundersspace.com/?p=4032#comment-1830 I’m not licensed to practice law! But, from what it sounds like to me is that you do not have to file anything in FL, because your REG Agent/Company is in another state and your point of sale is in the state you are currently in. Look at it like an internet company, or Microsoft paid tech support. Although goods are ship, and services are renderd to other states, the point of sales remain wherever you are.

]]> Comment on How do I find investors/manufactures to help get my patent-pending idea to the shelf? by Ken Jones http://www.foundersspace.com/fund-raising/how-do-i-find-investorsmanufactures-to-help-get-my-patent-pending-idea-to-the-shelf/comment-page-1/#comment-1797 Ken Jones Sat, 11 May 2013 16:45:53 +0000 http://www.foundersspace.com/?p=3441#comment-1797 Firstly nobody will think your idea is any good, it will even be difficult getting an appointment in the first place, just try phoning any corporation. Once you get an appointment you need to go in with the idea mocked up as close as possible to the real thing. There will have to be a serious 'wow I wish I had thought of that' angle to get anybody interested and also to get a patent. There is an industry just waiting to prey on the hopeful new inventor however these days you can do the whole patent process online, internationally. Even applying for a US Provisional patent is not the cheapest way to go, apply for a UK patent and you get a year to pay any fees and your UK Filing Date is good for your Non-Provisional US Patent. Therefore if nobody is interested in a year, just abandon your patent and it has cost you nothing. If someone is interested the royalty advance can pay the fees. A great cheap Amazon ebook which explains all this is DIY Patent Online - you can read some of it free. They also have a website but aren't trying to sell their services, just telling you how to patent without an attorney. You can bet if anybody rubbishes this comment they are an attorney.
