"He was too angry and proud to tell Bill Gates 'Some days working with you is like being in hell.'"

Wow, the interview was great to watch. I don't know if it was spun like this or not but Paul Allen comes off as someone with almost no social skills - he rarely looks the interviewer in the eye, shows no sense of humour, his private collections seem to show him being lonely and his words do sound like him being bitter. I think the least he could have done is sent a draft copy to Bill Gates saying this is what I'm planning to publish and wanted to give you a heads up.
