You too? I KNEW we were kindred souls. I have said numerous times that he was 
single-handedly responsible for untold millions in lost unit sales of Macs. 
Small businesses NEED Quickbooks. If it doesn't run on a Mac, why should they 
buy any Macs? 

One of the great tragedies of the computer age: Bill Campbell was the CEO of 
Intuit during the most crucial time in the life of the Mac, and totally dropped 
the ball. 

With all the rumors of Steve Jobs temper tantrums and the jokes of "beheadings" 
and the "bodies cooling in his office closet," I can't imagine how Bill 
Campbell survived as a board member so long.
