They gave very unfavorable terms at first. They then turned it around to be a little more favorable to founders.

Windspeed even apologized for being so insensitive towards how much the founders had invested into the company.

Small fund. No clear investment strategy (not my words, another VC/angel 's).

They are a very easy group to pitch to and work with. Very down to earth and great if you are a first time CEO. A very small group but have a lot of contacts.
