It sure adds a lot to the reputation of bitcoin if famous (and trusted) people talk positive about it and even support it. I think that once everything is more streamlined and everything is fool-proof to set up, more and more people will get into bitcoin. We all have to admit, most of the things about bitcoin seem easy and understandable for us but it has to be as easy as in like: there is a bill with either a 1,5,10,50 or 100 on it, pretty much everyone can understand that.
