Whats his excuse? Heck, just google his name to see a flattering set of pictures.
And your point is?

Your logic is so absurd that I don't even know where to begin...Microsoft was for many years the richest and most powerful company in the world. Many people turn into fans of the richest and most powerful in the vain hope that some of this wealth and power rubs off onto them. Many people love Bill Gates because he is so rich. These people are fans of Bill Gates and think that they are themselves better than a fan of Steve Jobs because Bill Gates made more money (I think that Steve Jobs has achieved more in his life, but that's just me), and they could never understand how anyone could be a fan of Wozniak or Jon Ives.
I on the other hand think that lots of people had their money disappearing and end up in his pockets, and that is why Bill Gates is rich. So I would rather not be his fan and instead keep my money in my pocket.

Ok I have to admit that was funny...
People hate to talk about anything negative regarding Apple. I was just stating an off topic thing about Steve. It turned into a Bill bashing response. Strange people I tell you.

Steve and Bill are friends. Stave gave Bill an iPhone as a gift, and Bill loves it.
Why can't we all be friends?![]()
Well when you go off praising Msft to the heavens then bring up Steve Jobs looking frail at TMZ of all places, its going to be assumed that you are trying to stir something up.
Or why can't we all use Photoshop?
Actually, they traded. Bill got the iPhone, Steve got a netbook

Considering how ms has little need for extra retail outlets, Im guessing this is just for PR purposes...
Wah wah, I switched developing focus from the iPhone to Android. Obviously you are young, so I won't try and shift the focus of this thread too much. your darling iPhone sells out your information every second it is connected to your AT&T tower. Patriot Act partnership with AT&T. They record every bit of data off that baby. Deal with it.
I would like to see a Google store, where all the employees where costumes to look like children's show characters. Their interface is so basic feeling, you might as well make the store feel strange as well. Chrome should have a lot of nice R&D from Android when it rolls out. Each update of Android I get only makes it slicker. Still waiting for the sexy interface in Eclair.![]()
Because these forums are recently being wrecked by these folks (not talking about lex750 in this particular instance).
"Only brainwashed morons with an obsession with fellating Steve Jobs buy Apple crap." - MacRumors troll
*total pandemonium ensues*
I'm not sure how this is healthy - or even tolerable.
(I think that Steve Jobs has achieved more in his life, but that's just me)
Interesting. At risk of taking this even more off topic I would be interested in your reasoning behind this.
http://www.gatesfoundation.org/Pages/home.aspx If Billy G ever earns his Nobel Prize I cannot imagine how this place will respond.
Oh please, getting the Nobel Prize is like getting a haircut in todays world. Big deal. If he gets the Super Nobel Prize of Awesomeness, maybe people will react as you expect.
(Quoting this again for the sheer hilarity, nice one chuckles)Oh please, getting the Nobel Prize is like getting a haircut in todays world.
When I said 'cannot imagine' that was a bit of a lie, I kind of suspected what would happen. It seems my suspicions were confirmed. Heck the Gates foundation could announce they have the cure for Cancer and some here would still roll out their tired old material. Or brush it off as inconsequential.
Who here as a problem with Gates? I hardly ever see anyone here bash Bill, as everyone knows he has done great things. Windows bashing? Yeah. Steve Ballmer bashing? He deserves it. But hardly anyone here talks crap about Bill. Just because we bash Microsoft doesn't mean we are attacking him. Bill is a great guy and does great things.
