Heir to the Danish throne will marry Microsoft lawyer next spring
The heir to the Danish throne, Crown Prince Frederik, 35, will marry Microsoft Business Solutions lawyer, Mary Donaldson, 31, of Tasmania, come next spring. This was confirmed in a press release from the Danish Court earlier today.

It didn't come as a surprise, though. Prince Frederik and Mary Donaldson met at the Sydney Olympics, and she moved from Sydney to London, and then later to Copenhagen more than 1 year ago.

In Australia she was a real estate agent, but apparently that was good enough to land her a high paying job as a lawyer for Microsoft in Denmark.

Congratulations to them.

Does anybody else get worried when a lawyer for the most powerful corporation in the world marries the heir apparent to a country?

To celebrate the good news, I think a new "I love you" virus is in order.

Only Microsoft is compatible to Microsoft. So he should better make his MCSE (Minesweeper champion, Solitaire expert) soon.

Well, he's already a Navy Seal, so the minesweeper part he can probably pick up on

As for solitaire, you'll have to ask him
