[Am-info] Bill Gates and the Asteroids of Doom

[Fred Miller]

"In saying this, I'm assuming, obviously, that Microsoft will still exist as a 
software maker. That's not a given; in fact, it's only barely more likely 
than unlikely. 

There are quite a lot of things that could drive major change, starting with a 
voluntary breakup into at least three operating companies and the return of 
substantial cash assets to the shareholders. Two, however, stand out as 
potential company killers -- the asteroids of doom. 

Both are unlikely, but either could extinguish the company and quite possibly 
land its founders and key managers in jail."
