McAfee Was Not Captured 150
netbuzz writes "As rumors and news reports of John McAfee's alleged capture circulated widely yesterday – fueled by McAfee's own blog and blogging cohorts – police and other authorities in Belize denied that they had the man in custody and, well, they should have been believed. McAfee surfaced earlier this morning and had this to say in a blog post: 'We are not in Belize, but not quite out of the woods yet.' He also painted a picture of his 'escape' that could have been taken from a bad spy novel."

They're scanning for him as we speak... heuristically.

Care about? No..... me neither, but, it sure is amusing to watch it unfold.
I particularly like this last bit about the Koran double not being able to stay in jail due to Mexican indifference. That could be a story in and of itself. I want to hear the Koran "double"s story, I bet it is at least fun.
I mean can you imagine.... being in Mexico with the intention of going to jail, and then finding out you ca't do anything that they care enough about to actually keep you? ROTFL what did he do? Kill someone? :)

Damn, dude! This is as close as a geek's going to get to James Bond-esque international intrigue. I'm picturing him running through the jungle from 5-star hotel to 5-star hotel with a bad super model/actress in tow.

Considering all his time as an executive within the software industry, he is probably fearful of piracy.
