I'm also a Guy Kawasaki fan. He and YC's own pg have contributed heavily to my idealogies regarding creating a successful product.
Guy writes amazing books, no offence, but whats guy's investment trackrecord? Reid Hoffman or Peter Thiel would be great guys to get investment from. Reid has an incredible trackrecord - last.fm, digg, facebook, friendster etc
That's why I didn't jump to name him as a "dream" investor. He just has a lot of good things to say which I respect.
I don't look solely on trackrecords. Business is hard work but to some extent also luck. Hits in the past are no guaranty for future hits.
Guy believes that entrepreneurs can change the world and make it a better place. Sounds quite naive but to me a vision is much more motivating than money and trackrecords.
