actually bill gates doesn't run Microsoft anymore, it is steve ballmer who is getting it. But he's too rich anyway.

I'm sure that Bill Gates has a large portion of stock within Microsoft, so he is definitely getting a good chunk of change.

ya he is the biggest share holder in MS as a business man he surely would want MS to make money to fill his pockets and its also the company he founded(did u guys also know he earns a lot and also gives charity a lot - the largest one i guess)

Bill Gates actually gives more to charity than any other human being on the planet! It now runs into Billion$. I used to live about a block away from their temporary HQ (The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation) in Seattle. I have met the man, and we talked about charity, not software. Believe me, he is actually a kind and generous man. Say what you may about him, but the UNICEF has stated that his efforts in Africa has saved thousands of lives of children living in Africa alone. His OS may not be what you want, his business model may not be what you want, but he has given billions back to those who need it most! If every reader on this forum were to donate one million dollars towards his foundation, we could not match what he has already spent!

For once, I hear something good about him...it's rare to see people praising him...sometimes man just forget to say thanks and only look at the other party's fault. Good job, Polkadot

P.S. You are VERY lucky to meet him in person...not everyone gets the chance

A bit OT

True enough, I admired your post and thanks for sharing this to our fellow forum mates. I once had written a report during college.The subject is about corporate social responsibility and I cited it as an example.

Yes a bit OT but a reference for the US... and the rest of the World (and im not talking of computers either) i only wish Wall Street had more CEO's like Bill.
