Even so, when tech companies are hiring, one of the things they do is trot out the list of investors to establish their credibility.

The salient question is whether potential hires will (a) Forget all about this, (b) Remember it and blame Silver Lake, or (c) remember it vaguely and think A.H. was involved?

I have no idea what the outcome will be, but I'm guessing that (b) is way less likely than (a) or (c).
