_I_ heard that MS demanded x million dollars to port 4.0 and DEC said

Urban Myth Story 2:

Some MicroSoft underVP was upset with Intel about something and conveying
his companies' upset-ness to  Andy Grove (CEO of Intel), in a very arrogant
disrespectful and rude manenr. To which Andy Grove replied "i survived the
