Aaron has already figured what he wants and doesn't want to do... That's why he stepped down from his position as president of ntgl. While I agree he is highly intelligent and skilled, he doesn't want to be caught up in the drama,worry of running a small startup. He wants to build groundbreaking gaming tech and be heavily involved with the implementation and regulation of skill based gaming.
Marissa would be a poor choice as well- yahoo has mostly faltered under her guidance,stock performance has been poor and they can't even capitalize on their substantial stake in Alibaba! Furthermore, she is a new mother and will have her hands full for awhile. Not that most blue chip ceo's would even glance this way.
We need someone who has connections and vision along with a proven track record for performance in start ups specifically. I had high hopes for peter at the beginning due to his finance background. I expected a reasonable debt solution and future finance package from him. I really can't answer what positives he accomplished while here. Whomever is elected will need to have a reputation worth putting on the line if there is to be any value added by their joining the company.
