Java in 1996 was version 1! Doesn't necessarily say much about Larry'd code-foo :) Jokes aside; I agree with the advice of hiring people smarter than you in the domains where you won't be paying attention should the company actually take off. If you're looking to be a founder/CEO level type, doesn't seem to matter what your skill in Java and OOP are, yes? No need to be a water walker. That's the "genius" of management; they sell an idea and get someone else to do the work.
