"Our system has speed and reliability not possible in traditional legacy architecture," Mr. Wittenschlaeger explains in the interview. He says that this is why the Company is making in-roads with cable TV, which places extraordinary loads on the network, the U.S. Department of Defense, which moves vast amounts of data, and other sectors that are dependent on new uses for the Internet, such as VoIP and video surveillance.

Also in the interview, Raptor Networks Technology's CEO details how the Company's sales and marketing team has been strengthened with the addition of executives with strong backgrounds in this field. He explains that Raptor's system is significantly more "hack-resistant" than its competitors, a key advantage with so much concern presently about network security.

Finally, Mr. Wittenschlaeger says shareholders can anticipate continued technological innovation by the Company in 2008, plus early sales in more key sectors, and momentum-growing revenues.
