Bill Gates: If the auto industry had kept up with change over the past 2 decades like MS has, we'd now have cars that could fly or teleport everywhere and didn't require manual steering.
Auto Exec: Yes, but we'd also have to get out and push at least twice every day.
Gates has kept the industry from evolving as efficiently as it could by stymieing competition - which is why he lost the antitrust case. He bought the program that became Explorer in exchange for very little cash, but a promise of royalties on purchases. Then, he gave IE away for free, meaning he had to pay the developer no $$$$$$$. MS also has had very Enron-style accounting practices since 1997. MS has *never* paid dividends (okay, that one's not so bad). Nevertheless, the list is quite long.
Plus, Bill Gates is absolute irrefutible proof that money cannot buy class.
