LE was a pre-boomer software lord. Held on to a mindboggling % of his company over 41 years.
Most subsequent founders got WAY diluted. Maybe not a swell guy but a force. And a real taste for art, not just spike heels. Legacy just slip sliding away. Sad.
He was legend but in 10 years memory of him will be gone with the wind if O tanks. All the diversification into real estate, undone museums, and underfunded medical research will not change that.
How many remember DEC...its epitaph that haunted alumni was "nobody there had any real business sense."
Does not have to be that way. Just pay attention...
