My Take
Randolph fascinates me less for Netflix's eventual scale than for the quiet courage of starting it by mailing DVDs. Co-founding and serving as the first CEO of what became a global giant is remarkable, but what really earns my respect is the serial-entrepreneur instinct behind MacWarehouse and the U.S. Macworld. Born in 1958, he kept reading the market across decades and reinventing himself rather than coasting on one win. I value builders who plant seeds patiently and then step aside, and Randolph reads to me as exactly that kind of clear-eyed, unflashy founder worth studying.
