Thank you for reviewing my article. in your review, you say "We're sorry, but we cannot accept insourced articles, or sources that are not reliable per the verifiability policy. Please cite reliable, third-party sources in the article. Third-party sources are needed so the information can be verified, and so the notability of the topic can be established."

I am sure you can see that the 3 of the external references listed are published by "RELIABLE THIRD PART REFERENCE". The fourth reference is the simply the web site that provides more details about the subject. If you want us to remove it, that is fine. Also Reference number 4 under "References" is published by, SD Times, a very reputable third part source. If you want us to remove the other 3 references, we can do that. There are hundreds of articles out there on Wikipedia that that does not have one single reference from external verifiable source; only the company web site. See the article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BuildMaster for example. I can find too many of these for you if you want. I am just following the same criteria that our competitor followed and then article was accepted. I certainly do not want our article to be treated differently or evaluated based on a different criteria. If our article is not accepted, then all these articles need to be deleted. Please advise what you are looking for instead of copying general text from Wikipedia pages. Thank you.
