“I regret that I have but one life to give in the cause of dodging taxes.” What an idiot.

Wow... This guy was once a hero. And he lived long enough to see himself become a villain.

So why does he keep warning me, my subscription (that I never had) is immediately running out!

Psst! I know he hasn''t had anything to do with the company, like forever.

He used to be quite the psychonaught at one time. Maybe he spent a little too much time in edge city.

He mighta blamed it on the taxes, but they would have been extraditing him for securities fraud as well, so it wasn't just the IRS that wanted him in the states.

Watched a Showtime documentary a couple years back about his years in Belize. If the people interviewed in that were telling the truth, he was guilty of at least one murder, and possibly others. He denied it, of course.

Doc I just watched 1/2 of said he was very into substances, all kinds from alcohol to DMT to some bizarre psychoactive stimulant aphrodisiacs, had a lot of super bizarre relationships with prostitutes, plus he went authoritarian on Belize, evidently, and was something of a gun nut. He obviously was really into putting people on, was clever, had a sense of humor and had a lot of fun. I'm sure a lot more. He had $100,000,000 to burn through when he sold off McAfee Antivirus and evidently burned through a whole lot of it pretty indiscriminately.
