Actually, he got the gig for selling DOS to IBM for their pc's via intervention from his mother, and he bought dos from someone else to sell to IBM.

Re: Let the theives decide how they should be punished?

How many times did his companies go bankrupt?

Is that smarter, or is that manipulating the system because he had the money to take advantage of it?

His companies went bankrupt 4 times.. however, since they were corporations, he was able to insulate his personal fortune from his companies going under (once by transferring stuff to his wife)
