Vinod Khosla: 70-80% Of VCs Add Negative Value To Startups

Right. But in terms of delivering in a favorable way on those promises, CEOs I know speak less well of Khosla than of the other high-profile new-breed VCs -- Andreesen-Horowitz, Google Ventures, etc.

Also, the second-worst story I've heard of "WTF???" VC negotiations over the past couple of years was with Khosla. (That said, it wasn't nearly as bad as the worst one.)

WTF and Khosla go hand in hand.

Again, he can negotiate any way he pleases. Just don't pretend and market yourself as some great friend to founders. He's decidedly not.
