I find it odd that he has no technology experience whatsoever. Perhaps this can be a good thing (especially if you don't want the CEO second guessing you). But it seems to me that the most significant problems that Linden Lab faces is in the area of scaling it's technology and making it more accessible.

It has never been about bringing in more residents, or more businesses. They get here; they don't get it; they become frustrated; they leave. What is he going to do about this?
Pretty words and shiny is cheaper than hardware.
