  People have run billion dollar tech startups without computers for centuries? Tell me more, please.

    Given that he's the CEO of two reasonably large companies, I'm assuming that most of his non-private thinking time is spent in meetings, giving some form of presentation, and in email, there's no inherent need for a desktop computer which I believe is the intent of the article if you could call it that.

    I'm not sure why 'start-up' is significant, or even accurate. Standard Oil hit a market cap of over $1 trillion without computers. Maybe it was a coal-industry-disruptor start-up...?

      Things moved a lot more slowly back then. News cycles were in terms of days or weeks.
