Where's my lobbyist? Right here.
I found a link to that story (Bill writing the software that put him in the same class with lots of girls).
I also googled with "myth" and "urban legend" but I couldn't find anything that quickly. (Doesn't prove it's true, though!)

Remember that Minter is perhaps most famous for Llamatron; you can fire it up to this day in any Atari ST emulator pretty much, such as STeem or SainT, or WinSTon, etc etc. STonX runs very well under Unix/Linux for instance..
