the parallels between Google and Microsoft go further in that prior to their own IPO, the Google founders granted an interview to Playboy that was not supposed to be published until after the IPO: http://www.google-watch.org/playboy.html http://www.google-watch.org/playboy.html It was published prior to the IPO (because of magazine lead times, etc.) and caused them a lot of problems - they were close to having to cancel the IPO I am trying to find other IPO quiet period tech interviews to put them all together in a blog post - so if you know of any others, let me know
