Bill Gates' old 911 sells for $80k

[Stratman]

Like the title says, his 911 Turbo fetched $80,000 at auction, together with some correspondence between the great one and Porsche. I wonder if it was along the lines of "Switch it off, wind the windows down and back up again then see if it starts"

Nice looking Porker. The Devil of Redmond has gone up in my estimation.

Cheers,

I wonder if it got used enough for him to re-boot it...

Now Bill Gates made his fortune in the early days by producing a series of repackaged operating systems which looked different on the surface but underneath contained a somewhat flawed old core structure. Wonder where he got that idea ?

Ahh, the old Wi(n)dow Maker..

Wonder how the buyer will take ownership. Was there a freight option? Perhaps it read Send / Don't send...

Oof, sorry, long day
