Notable Appearances
SoftShell Computers was featured on the season 3 premiere episode of Dragons' Den that aired on 29 September 2008. The initial response was quite negative from the Dragons, but a deal of C$200,000 in exchange for 50% of the company was eventually worked, largely due to the help of Hazel, an 83-year-old user of their product, whom they brought to help with their business pitch.

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or appearances:
“In one notable instance, where the United States Army and a hundred years of persuasion failed, a highway has succeeded. The Seminole Indians surrendered to the Tamiami Trail. From the Everglades the remnants of this race emerged, soon after the trail was built, to set up their palm-thatched villages along the road and to hoist tribal flags as a lure to passing motorists.”
—For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“Truth has scarce done so much good in the world as the false appearances of it have done hurt.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
