People wondered why Bill Gates married a co-worker

Neither, do I suspect, this lady had. I think that she would do better to have friends and relatives pick some guy to spend some time with her. Maybe find a computer guy and give him a job working with her and see if they hit it off first? Then talk about marriage if it works out? "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."

It was sooooooo great that nobody wanted to use it, so of course Billy Boy made the biggest decision of his life to marry the woman who wrote the worst selling piece of MS software for Windows that ever existed! ;) BTW XP has an AI in it, that has a throttle setting for CPU power (it can toggle the speed and bandwidth for applications so that one app cannot monopolize the CPU cycles) is this AI based on MSBob?

I may have mentioned this before, but several years ago a co-worker and I went to one of these periodic computer exhibitions/shows/sales. One thing on sale was a copy of Bob. He didn't buy it, and has been kicking himself ever since (it's a collector's item, if nothing else, right?) Where each demon is slain, more hate is raised, yet hate unchecked also multiplies. - L.
