I believe Bill Gates has skills that we all might admire, but to be
one's hero, that is sad.

I would admire Bill more if he took some of his great wealth and gave
of his intelligence & money to better society, in general. Instead of
trying to better the world strictly through technology and nonpersonal
communications.

Not a theif, just very good @ taking an idea and pushing until it is
successful.

Neither did Apple, Xerox just screwed themselves by not going after
Apple, then MS
