"Compaq buys Zip2" (The aquision that helped Tesla and created SpaceX)

[Kurt Foster]

This is just a little piece of history to remind you all of how fortunate we are to have SpaceX AND Tesla Motors... Without that $220 Million its anyone's guess on whether or not these companies would exist today.

Heres the link to the 2002 (yes, I know..) article

Zip2 used to Host The New York Times... interesting.
