Anyone who thought the world of IT, and software development in particular, was inhabited by personality-less geeks, needs to think again. Paul Allen, one of the co-founders of Microsoft, is said to be enjoying a spot of R'n'R on his yacht with none other than Jerry Hall. Today's London Evening Standard claims that friends of Allen have said: "Jerry has definitely been around Paul recently." Maybe the former Miss Texas can't get the rock 'n' roll life out of her system despite her split with Mick Jagger earlier this year -– as well as being one of the world's richest men, Allen plays in a rock band called The Threads. ®
