Man... That sucks... If m$ can steal from everybody else, then that guy should've kept the yacht, and gotten off scot-free. I do think it was a m$ hitman...

How the blue heck does someone steal $9 million in software? Download XP Pro and place a couple thousand copies on CDs?
>(sickboy) Over and Over and Over :-D
In that cause, he would have died from gum disease. :p :eek: :eek:

Yea, I know XP pro edition is expensive, but what the hell did he sell and for how long to total 9 million bucks!?!? Either that's a wharehouse full of burnt CDs or someone's smoking the inflation pipe for the insurance claim.

You're trying to open a link to something Microsoft related with your PC and it doesn't work??
This is something to remember... :D :D
Here is the link:
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&cid=569&ncid=738&e=1&u=/nm/20030211/tc_nm/crime_microsoft_death_dc
Then, again, what do you expect from, uh, Yahoo?
" SEATTLE (Reuters) - A former Microsoft Corp. manager who was facing prosecution for allegedly stealing more than $9 million worth of software died unexpectedly at a local hospital four days ago, the King Country Medical Examiner's office said on Tuesday.
Daniel Feussner, 32, died last Friday due to multiple organ failure, but the cause of death could not be determined until further tests were conducted, an investigator at the Medical Examiner's office said.
Officials for Overlake Hospital Medical Center in Bellevue, Washington, did not confirm whether Feussner was a patient there, citing the hospital's privacy policy.
Feussner was out on bail after being fired and arrested in December for allegedly obtaining software meant for internal use and selling it illegally to fund a lavish lifestyle of luxury cars, jewelry and a yacht.
"We are very saddened by this tragic event and our hearts are with Daniels' family and friends," said Microsoft spokeswoman Stacy Drake."

did you guys not see that clause in the XP EULA about how if they catch you stealing their software, they can sell your children as slaves in Iraq and lock your parents in a small room lined with Pu 239, not to mention sell your spouse as a forced prostitute in the location of their choosing and.... take your macs away? dang, hope you didn't pirate it!
