Microsoft has never owned a nuclear power plant
Having worked at one for 37 years and in that time worked under 3 different owners, one of which had no experience as being the owner operator of nuclear power generation, I can tell you that managing a nuclear power plant is different than anything most businessmen are accustomed to.
And most management types are not the type are ready to accept that they could be wrong.
But Bill’s OS ran Sim City! What could go wrong?
Seriously, though, how do you just extend the operation of a nuclear power plant? Where are the spent fuel rods stored?
Having worked at several, you are absolutely correct.
That’s why the power company owner will still be managing the plant.
