Best lede I've read this week:

Software venture capitalist Ann Winblad is a modern-day Artemis, Greek goddess of the hunt.

Great article but this sentence demonstrates the author doesn't understand investing: "With only $500 in startup capital, Winblad in 1976 co-founded Open Systems, an accounting software company. Six years later, she and her partners sold the business for $15 million — 30,000 times initial capital."

I noticed that too.
