I can think of any number of bigger, more profitable and more exciting software businesses, but none that make the owner quite as radiantly happy as BCC makes Patrick. I feel slightly uncomfortable talking in such a hippyish manner, but there&apos;s a certain Zen quality to the way Patrick does business; Like a rock garden, BCC is at once a metaphor for life and something purely abstract. His way of doing things seems as much about being a better person as it is about running a better business.&lt;p&gt;If you desperately want a squillion dollars, read PG.
If your idea of fun is running a big office, read Spolsky.
If you have other priorities, I can&apos;t think of a wiser voice than patio11.</text></comment>
