&#62; We would ask you to respect Paul's privacy and not discuss this outside of the office.<p>So, by all means, please forward along to techflash post-haste. While I agree this is "interesting" in a newsworthy sense, I think it's a dick move for it to be shared with the news media other than by Paul's consent.

These are very sad news. I truly hope he can beat it.

Sad to hear this. On a morbid note, the Computer History Museum will likely be getting a hell of an equipment donation from him upon his inevitable death. Allen is, evidently, a ravenous computer collector. Also, his boat was just moored in Alameda for a complete overhaul.
