This guy is a genius that practially invented OS’s.
Well, at least he made them popular. He bought QDOS (and changed the name to MSDOS) from Seattle Computers for next to nothing, stole the idea of Windows from Apple, forced the world to use his browser by making the OS dependent on his browser, bought most of his competition, etc.
I use his products only because I have to. I find Windows machines easier to use (JMHO). My clients use IE, so therefore I must use it. My clients use Excel, and Word, so I must use it. I’m not going to be animostic and learn a diff prog, just to disagree with “MegloSlop” (wanting to take over the world, but very untidely).
I don’t think BG is evil, just very agressive. I think the amount of halting the internet is fairly weighted against the improvements available due to a large mass of the public on one format.
