That show was very misleading. They made it seem like Bill Gates was 
responsible for the entire computer inidustry's existence, and didn't 
even mention the importanc contributions of some people who did more than 
Gates (i.e. Jack Tramiel, Nolan Bushnell, and a bunch more). They also 
made Steve Jobs look pretty bad. And they did'n realize how screwed up 
the computer industry has gotten over the last 5 years because of 
Microsoft.
