Good read.
Prisoner of Redmond:
Yet Another Way Paul Allen Isn't Like You or Me
By Robert X. Cringely
What kind of monsters are these people?
"During one of those last long nights working to deliver DOS 2.0 in
early 1983, I am told that Paul Allen heard Gates and Ballmer discussing
his health and talking about how to get his Microsoft shares back if
Allen were to die.
Maybe that’s just the sort of fiduciary discussion board members have to
have, but it didn’t go over well with Paul Allen, who never returned to
Microsoft, and over the next eight years, made huge efforts to secure
his wealth from the fate of Microsoft. "
