Larry becoming CEO sounds like the same path that Bill Gates had.
Found a company and become it's CEO.
When it's time for the company to "grow up", bring in a well respected CEO who can structure the company for growth and stability while teaching the young founder.
When the founder has learned the ropes he takes over again as CEO.

- chollida1 16y agoHmm how about that, it looks like you are correct:) I though John Shirley was the CEO for most of the 80's:)
