I'm almost sure I know the person. If I'm right, it's really a he, even though he never confessed. Nice meeting you here, btw.

According to wikipedia, "From his two known interviews, it is known that: Mini-Microsoft is male (reported in both interviews). He is married (reported in both interviews and occasionally referred to on the site). At least one co-worker has figured out his identity (reported by Danny Westneat)."
