3:15 And what about security? I'll be working in the most exciting industry for next 30 years. Who needs security? WRONG

And what about ownership image. People will know when it goes public! But will they care?

I have influence at Microsoft. That is what counts to me. But I must not say I own it. But I must show (1/18/84: this is really the solution! And gain influence over people. See last page.) that I am very comfortable. So start decorating + entertaining now. But remember

1) Don't take credit for Microsoft's business strategy I can't even talk about it, it's over my head.

2) Disclaim ownership if it ever comes up, but claim influence.

But what about friends?

MEN, MEN, MEN.

And environment?

SUN, SUN, SUN.
