Nice floppy, Bill.

I am just sitting here wishing I knew then what I know now. Imagine buying up a bunch of stock from this man's company at it's inception. Instead of sitting here at my computer in this freezing Ohio weather, I'd be lying on a beach somewhere drinking Pina Coladas served by a cabana boy named Dirk. Who'da thunk it?

I find it interesting that some of the 'Microsoft millionaires' continue to do research w/us at UW in Seattle. They could have retired long ago but seem to prefer to work because they enjoy the research and problem solving. They have also been very generous to our university.

However, I'm sure there must be some who worked with Gates early on, made their money when the company took off, and left.
