from the book 'Masters of
Doom' by David Kushner...'As
the lights fell, a video
screen lowered above the
stage; It was time for the
main event. The crowd cheered
as the Doom's familiar
corridors began to roll. But
it was not the Doom soldier

Bill Gates! Microsoft's
fearless leader was
superimposed running inside

trench coat and brandishing a
shotgun. Gates stopped running
and addressed the crowd about
Windows 95 as a gaming
platform: A platform that
could deliver cutting-edge
multimedia experiences like
Doom. But no sooner that he
begun that an Imp monster from
the game jumped out, through
voice over, asked Gates for an
autograph [sic]. Gates
responded by raising his
shotgun and blowing the beast
to gory chunks. 'Don't
interrupt me while I'm
speaking', he said, then
finished his speech. At the

with blood, only to be
replaced with the familiar
Microsoft phrase 'Who do you
want to execute today?'. 'This

going to be fired'. He went to
retrieve the video, but it was
gone. He could keep his job,
he learned, but Microsoft was
keeping the tape.'Until now...
