Tom Noonan is a very good point. There were Chris Klauses in at least 3 other places at the same time, but only one ISS and only one Tom Noonan. ISS was also managed very differently than their mid-'90s competitors, in ways you can trace back to Noonan.

Noonan is also definitely a product of Atlanta.

Tom also invested in and advised many companies after ISS. The founders of SPI dynamics are doing the same thing. Lots of the founders of these companies that exited have done that, or gone on to found more than one company. Its what sustains the cluster.
