THE MISSING LINK
Microsoft employee charged with stealing Windows
![]()
How many of Microsoft's mid-level engineers can afford Bill Gates-worthy toys like a $95,000 Ferrari, a 58-foot yacht and a Rolex? Yep, something smells rotten in the state of Washington, and the FBI thinks it has found the source of the stench. Authorities have arrested 32-year-old Daniel Feussner, who headed a .NET project, and charged him with pilfering some $9 million worth of Windows. He allegedly used Microsoft's internal purchase orders to buy high-end server software, then sold it on the street and kept the cash. Feussner was livin' large and even hosted a Web site to show off the spoils of his "Windows outlet" operation. Now he could spend up to 75 years in prison and pay more than $1 million in fines.
