* REDMOND, WASH.--He does not intend to turn over his job to a successor any
* time soon, but Microsoft Corp. CEO Bill Gates said today he does not plan
*to
* run the company long after he turns 50.
A friend of mine, who used to head up the AVI project has Bill on tape
saying this about 4 years ago. However what he said is more like (and I
paraphrase)
"I don't think I want to do this after 50. I guess one day I'll just wake
up and call it quits."
my friend "quits?"
"yeah, just close the place up. I don't see how I could turn it over to
someone else after all I've been through."
