I'm tired of participating in the cover up, so I'm going to speak the truth. Several of MicroTik's competitors approached Mark and asked him to support this board, in exchange for a bundle of cash. When MicroTik refused to match the offer, support was added, thereby forcing MicroTik to cease production.
