In the article you mentioned the low power benefit, and mentioned the HP computer, as low cost solution, but I think that our product the Cubox that Costs 120$ and needs only 3 Watt of power could be another excellent solution.

VSS Announces Successful Exit From its Investment in All Systems Holding LLC

Veronis Suhler Stevenson (VSS), a private investment firm focused on the information, education, media, marketing and business services industries, today announced the repurchase of the entire investment of VSS Structured Capital II, L.P. in All Systems Holding LLC (“System One”). Headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA, System One was formed in 2008 through a management buyout led by Troy Gregory, System One’s CEO, of Hudson Highland Group, Inc.’s engineering staffing business. Under current management, System One has become a leading provider of managed staffing and technical outsourcing solutions.

VSS made its investment in System One in October of 2010. In the current transaction which closed on December 31, 2012, MidOcean Partners invested in System One providing equity capital and a portion of proceeds of that investment were used to redeem VSS SCII’s investment.

System One is a premier provider of professional managed staffing solutions for the energy, nuclear, engineering, information technology, scientific and commercial sectors.

During the period VSS held the investment, the Company added complementary services including a proprietary vendor management system, a legal staffing business and an utility services business. System One is the sixth largest engineering staffing company and forty-second largest staffing company overall in the United States.

“Over the past several years, Troy Gregory built an outstanding management team which greatly increased the scope of the System One offerings. We were very pleased with the performance of the Company during our investment period,” said Hal Greenberg, Partner, VSS Structured Capital II, LLC. “Furthermore, System One has been an excellent example of VSS’s commitment to investing in the business services sector.”

VSS has extensive experience in the business services sector including such platform investments as Trover Solutions, a provider of subrogation and overpayment recoveries for insurance payors in the healthcare and property and casualty industries; SHL, a provider of cloud-based talent measurement and management solutions; Avatar International, a provider of intelligent and customizable survey-based products for the healthcare industry; Executive Health Resources of expert medical management services to improve hospital compliance and achieve revenue integrity; and Ebiquity, a business information services company providing global advertising monitoring and press monitoring services.
