> mellowed him somewhat, it's hard to see.
> Let's not forget that, while there are lots of disparagers of the
> company, it is a company filled with highly intelligent people who often
> perform small miracles;
> I wish I could find the interviews with Larry Ellison and Scott McNealy
> who were both asked on separate occasions back in the late nineties; "If
> you could be the Chairman/CEO of any company in the world, which would
> it be?" and both answered Microsoft.

> If you were known as the company's Uber-Booster and that company had put

> them a little craziness in the name of morale?
