...doing bussines as usual? Only of course, someone would pick up where Gates left, and they would be in the same situation.
Tho, of course, Gates can be credited with ideas that helped make Microsoft what it is today (for better or for worse). But again... The same question we went over and over again. Is he entitled to such a fortune just for the work he did? I dont think so.

its not all about him, but he is a large chunk of it. | | _strat_ wrote: | | I would imagine that he employed them as he went along. The fact here is that Microsoft (the name is allegedly inspired from Bill Gatess genitals) is an international corporation, that has its subsidiaries in practicly every country in the world, and does more than just develop new crap, but sells it, promotes it, provides service for it... ect. Even though Gates may have had the idea and did work in his field, there is still much more to Microsoft than just what he does or did. | | Head banger wrote: | | but he didnt have legions of workers. and if it sucks, he must be briliant to convince everyone to buy it. | | _strat_ wrote: | | Yeah right. The guy makes a new system that is exactly like the old one, except it crashes more often, and thats why he should get billions. And of course, he has legions of employees all over the world that do his bidding for him.
He is a hypocrate, thats what he is. | | Head banger wrote: | | bill gates, and he gave it all away! |
