Wow, seems like Gates treated them like crap and most of them left the company within a few years.


Actually, apart from the issue with Marla Wood, the article says that everyone else left in the mid-80s or 90s, ranging from 5-10/15 years after the photo was taken. That's a very decent stint in any company.


I counted 8 people that left disenchanted, tired or in a dispute. 6 were gone by 1983.

It would be today, but back then?


You don't get rich by giving money away.


Marc McDonald stayed for quite a while after he was reacquired ... he might still be there.
