This is too broad a brush. Giving Fairchild credit for Google (because, I suppose, one of the founders of Kleiner Perkins worked there) is like giving DE Shaw credit for Amazon. (Actually, I would argue the DE Shaw - Amazon case is stronger!) I wish they would draw a more direct tree. People who directly founded companies. Is it Intel, Sequoia and Kleiner?
