You makes some decent points but you continue to say things that are a bit ridiculous such as:
"who pale in comparison to people your encounter every day on the job. Why do you think the most important class in any business school is the internship?".
Where do you work that you get to spend each day with the best and brightest business leaders in the world? There are reasons why top management consulting firms aggressively recruit MBAs from top-tier business schools and a lot of it has to do with the people that they were surrounded with in their education.
I'm not going to discount your opinions or Marc Andreesen's opinions but they are just two opinions. I'm sure I could go talk to any partner at Accenture and get a vastly different opinion. I don't really think that the MBA makes that much sense for someone interested in starting their own web company but for many career paths it does.

I just believe that we all have a lot to learn from all the ordinary people running the world, a little bit at a time. I imagine the best and brightest business leaders in the world would agree with me. "I'm sure I could go talk to any partner at Accenture and get a vastly different opinion" Yes you will! But don't forget to talk to a few of the many business people who despise firms like Accenture. I know they're out there because they're the ones who call people like me (and many others here) to clean up the messes MBAs leave behind. "I don't really think that the MBA makes that much sense for someone interested in starting their own web company but for many career paths it does." Yes, I agree.
