Gamespot has a lovely article about the man.  A retrospective on as
shining of a career in game programming as one could hope for.

  URL <A  HREF="http://gamespot.com/features/sidlegacy/">http://gamespot.com/features/sidlegacy/</A>

IT's fairly long, but very interesting.  Make sure to read Sid's comments
as well.  He talks about what he feels makes a game good, and what is
important in game design.

I dunno how long it will be up, but Gamespot seems to be on about a 1-2
week rotation.

-Greg
