Being a CEO frequently is a very sad position to be in when you are a visionary, it's really the wrong place for Philip. The place for that kind of thinker is AWAY from the business structure.
I whole heartedly agree. Break it down to simpler terms ... If he joined SL today, I know he would dive right into scripting and building, and prolly not profit from any of his projects, but just do it to push the system. It was never in him to be like Anshe and other business executives here.

It sounds like good news to me. We still have the visionary on board and free to do what he does best, and now we'll also have a new face on board who can keep the flightiness in check.
