First, I am a huge proponent of couple-founded businesses. I think the economic entanglements help stabilize the couple, minimizing chances of a messy divorce. Additionally if you have couples which share the inspiration of the business, that's a powerful thing. I think that the fact that you don't have a hard line between work and home life is a big asset that goes the other way.
I am remembering the story on Dragon and the acquisition gone bad some time ago on HN and remembering that was another couple-founded company.
