Not to mention:
1996: Ban Bob Petition
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Bobboot1.png
"/Microsoft Bob/ was intended to be a user-friendly interface for
Microsoft Windows version 3.2, replacing the /Program Manager
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_Manager>/. The project was at one
point managed by Melinda French
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melinda_Gates>, who at the time was Bill
Gates <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Gates>' girlfriend (the two
later married).^[2] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Bob#_note-1>
At the time French left Microsoft, she was Product Unit Manager for a
group which included /Bob/ and three other Microsoft titles."
And Bill had to marry her to kill Bob???
