Up until now, Gates has largely controlled the unfolding of his remarkable story. At 39, he seems to have achieved the
information age's equivalent of the American Dream. Through intelligence, ruthlessness and hard work he dominates a
technology so central to modern life that it touches nearly every office, school and desktop. 1He is very, very rich and
so powerful that even his enemies are eager to cut deals with him. Now he wants more, a piece of all the action - the
bills people pay, the phone calls they make, the news they read, the TV they watch. But he may have reached that
point in the arc of success where the very qualities that raised him high could start to drag him down.
If Gates is feeling a little cranky these days, he has good reason. The U.S. Justice Department derailed his $2 billion
bid to acquire Intuit and its popular Quicken electronic check book program, a deal that ___(I)____ realize Microsoft's
ambition to make money from almost every commercial transaction in cyberspace. Another team of U.S. government
lawyers is snooping around asking questions about Microsoft Network, the new on-line service he plans to launch in
August. And an antitrust suit that has been hanging over his head for nearly five years - and which he thought lie had
settled last year - is in legal limbo, held hostage by an ornery federal judge.
Despite the company's reputation as a juggernaut, Microsoft is running into some unexpected snags in the
marketplace as well. Gates wants desperately to seize control of the so-called local area networks, where more and
more corporate business is done. But ___(II)___ company is having trouble developing ___(III)___ product that can
compete with Lotus Notes, which dominates the market for "groupware" (the software that helps people brainstorm
over these networks) ___(IV)___ Novell's NetWare still controls two-thirds of the market for the software that runs the
office systems, despite Microsoft's best efforts with Windows NT. And Microsoft's SQL Server is still struggling to win
customers from Oracle, which owns almost half the market for ___(V)___ critical database software that stores the
corporate word's most important information.
