“Kempin has been a problem child for Microsoft for

with his car instead of shooting them).

stipulation that he didn’t have to talk to the press. And no
wonder: Kempin, more than just about anyone else at Microsoft, knew

just about any Microsoft executive (with the possible exception of
Bill Gates) to get Microsoft hauled into federal court on antitrust
charges.”
