Perhaps he felt that, though he made a wonderful product, he never got the notoriety or the capital that he felt was deserved. Did any of you ever bother to register PKZIP? I didn't. Hell, I didn't even bother to send a thank-you card. It's all my fault. I also (referring to Whiskey Jameson's post) once worked next door to PKWARE, and always wondered how they stayed afloat. Must have been doing other things than waiting for the $50 for registering PKZIP to roll in. I do remember them scrambling for the mailbox every time the mailman came. (Lie)
Yeah, in the short run I agree with you, but in the long run, that was all taken care of when Neo did the touch of death on Smith. If you could take Neo's knowledge as far as most slashdot readers would take it, I would say that he had the "touch of death". After that point in the movie, he could stop the bullets. "Man, if you're the one, they shouldn't matter."
Yeah, that was one of the ironies of the episode, Bender felt so depressed about what he was doing, making bent bars for the suicide booth, that he decided to kill himself in one of them. Classic Groening paradox, if you ask me.

I recall a script called MOSLO that I would use to play my UltimaII...and so on with. Man, those little buggers moved fast without it!
