Just heard in 2 years Bill will be stepping down from M$ to, as the video said, instead of makeing money, give it away. Hes been working to help 3rd world countries improve their health conditions. His program has given 10 billion a year (i believe) when the U.S. budget is only 1.6 billion. So hopefully he will help improve health signifigantly.

So that's why Bill keeps losing billions in a single day.

He's feeling guilty about being so rich. That's the earmark of a liberal. He ought to spend the money teaching freedom, capitalism and opportunity to these impoverished, third-world cesspools.

Or maybe providing relief in the impoverished, third-world cesspools right here in the USA.

He just can't get a break can he? No matter what, people will always attack Bill Gates. I love Mr. Gates, because I love my XP.

And he does help too.
What's the latest from Lee Raymond?

Um, he's been philanthropic for a long while. This isn't a sudden "guilt" trip as you would like to have others believe.

He has also donated huge ammounts in the USA toward education and other causes. How many other CEO's can say that?

Rootbeer, "teaching freedom and capitalism" is the biggest load of bu11sh!t I have heard in a long time. You can't "teach" freedom, you dumb f|_|ck! Yeah you can teach capitalism, but that isnt free unless you teach socialism- so your point contradicts itself.
QED, bitch.

What on god's green earth does QED mean? I was able to find out the meaning of BBQ easier than this. I wish people would just speak English in normal conversation.

I bet he's more guilty about all the problems in his operating systems and trying to make up for it. I mean, I would be guilty and embarressed too after selling Win 95 & Win 98 to the world
