[comp.unix.questions] Joy on AT&T-Sun deal

In "The Business World" section of the New York Times
Magazine for Mar 27th, there is an article on Bill Joy.
On the opposition to the AT&T-Sun deal, it says:

   Bill Joy is reminded of what happened when he
   skipped a grade at school: "The other kids didn't
   like me, and I had to walk home the long way around
   to avoid the bully. The other computer companies
   don't like us very much these days."
   
The whole article is worth reading.

So is the article on Bill Joy in the New York Times Magazine two weeks ago.
It's more on the person Bill Joy, than just SMI.

I understand the the New England Journal of Medicine is planning a large
series on Bill Joy's childhood diseases.  I don't know about you, but
*I* can't wait.  Catch the wave and all that....

Any survey of Bill's childhood diseases must, of course, be a 
work-in-progress...
