   Hello A;;!   
      
      
   Microsoft Co-Founder Paul Allen Dies At 65

   Microsoft Co-Founder Paul Allen Dies At 65   
      
   Paul Allen, who launched Microsoft with Bill Gates in 1975 and went on to   
   produce documentaries, own professional sports teams and dedicate time to   
   philanthropy, died today at age 65.   
      
   Allen died this afternoon of complications from non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.   
      
   "While most knew Paul Allen as a technologist and philanthropist, for us he   
   was a much-loved brother and uncle, and an exceptional friend. Paul's family   
   and friends were blessed to experience his wit, warmth, his generosity and   
   deep concern," Allen's sister said in a statement to CNBC. "For all the   
   demands on his schedule, there was always time for family and friends. At this   
   time of loss and grief for us - and so many others - we are profoundly   
   grateful for the care and concern he demonstrated every day."   
   Regards,   
      
   [MY NOTE]  I do not share in the above accolades, but I do wish him well.
