Terribly incorrect.
They aren't getting 1 million each, they must split a million.

With eyes like echos in the night
Hiding from the hell that you've been through'

'Slip out the back before they know you were there
And at the worst you'll see nobody cares
Cuz you don't wanna be around when it all goes down
Even heroes know when to be scared'

According to the last copy of his will (released to the public) his children must split 2 million, and the rest of his fortune goes to charity.

He would have explained that to his family already an no doubt there will be no fighting over how the money gets split once he dies.

Surprised no one has even thought to do this yet...
Wikipedia:
Quote:
Gates is one of the best-known entrepreneurs of the personal computer revolution. Although he is admired by many, a number of industry insiders criticize his business tactics, which they consider anti-competitive, an opinion which has in some cases been upheld by the courts (see Criticism of Microsoft). In the later stages of his career, Gates has pursued a number of philanthropic endeavors, donating large amounts of money to various charitable organizations and scientific research programs through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, established in 2000.

Bill Gates stepped down as chief executive officer of Microsoft in January 2000. He remained as chairman and created the position of chief software architect. In June, 2006, Gates announced that he would be transitioning from full-time work at Microsoft to part-time work and full-time work at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. He gradually transferred his duties to Ray Ozzie, chief software architect and Craig Mundie, chief research and strategy officer. Gates' last full-time day at Microsoft was June 27, 2008. He remains at Microsoft as non-executive chairman.

Some other wee facts:

Quote:
As of 2007, Bill and Melinda Gates were the second most generous philanthropists in America, having given over $28 billion to charity.
Quote:
Gates was also made an honorary Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE) by Queen Elizabeth II in 2005
