PULL-EASE....don't EVER put "Bill Gates" and "Success" in the same post, or
the same story....EVER AGAIN.
Microsoft's stock price just "says it all"....totally languishing for the
past 4 years.
AND..Microsoft has done NOTHING innovative over that same time period.....
AND..Windows 98 once declared as "the source code of Windows 98 is our
greatest asset"...
as it goes down as the biggest virul-malware-infected
piece-of-software-crap-in-history...
and all of that philanthropy B.S. by Bill and Melinda Gates has been nothing
but P.R. B.S....
which helps to minimize their exposure to criticism.
ENOUGH !
Smart people can see thru the mirk.
Sell MSFT at open....forever.
