This is staggering, we've managed to turn Bill Gates saying something very gracious about Steve Jobs into hate filled rants about him.
I agree from the Apple Fanbiys to MS trolls both sides have taken a heart felt appreciation of SJ by Bill Gates and destroyed the comments.
I noticed there is more negativity between MS fans and Apple Fans, then between the 2 TOP men in respective companies.
For people who think Bill Gates is not classy, just look at his foundation, yes it full of control freaks, but guess what, that foundation has done more for Africa and India, then all of the governments in terms of affordable medicines and providing proactive solutions.
Also in 90s when MS were being sued, every major monopoly was under the radar because prior to that there were no laws on how to behave and governments took notice. The 90s was period of change for many industries.
Pity Bald Eagle MS CEO does not have that type of classy and intelligence.
does not matter what he says, still (and will always be) a conman.
He's NOT a con-man. He even offered to send me and my family to Disneyland if I forward an email to everyone I know. Or is he going to send me cash? I forget.
I think this one qualifies for a big EPIC FAIL prize. Congrats.
So what you are saying is Apple was doing great without Steve Jobs? You might want to take a look back in history. Apple doors would have closed a long time ago if it wasn't for Steve Jobs.
I think this one qualifies for a big EPIC FAIL prize. Congrats.
Unfortunately extreme is actually right, Apple was on brink on closure before SJ stepped back into the company, that is a fact and everyone knows about the MAJOR issues occurring with innovation and business strategy at the time before SJ coming back

Unfortunately....LOL. I'm actually right alot of time.
Oh, yes you do. Microsoft has been big in contributions to Republicans in Congress and the White House over the years, pushing to get favorable legislation. Do you think it's a coincidence that after Bush took office, the Justice Department backed off the monopoly case against Microsoft, and offered a very mild punishment to settle the case?
That a lot different than having some has-been leftist politician sitting on your board dictating questionable environmental policies resulting in glass screens for the last 3 years to appease Greenpeace.

I know the history. Apple was different and Steve was different. Apple today is very different with a lot of good designers, programmers and engineers. Steve took medical leave of absence and Apple did best 1/4 ever State of Apple will be determined in a few years after Steve is gone, but it's not a fact that no Steve = no Apple , that's an assumption.

Its not an assumption, Big difference with someone taking medical leave and leaving the company. You think Steve Jobs wasn't involved while on medical leave.....LOL. Yeah your dreaming.
Yes Gates and Buffett did set up philantropic organizations.
I think if you look at the tax laws, and this is beyond the scope of what can be posted here, you would find that the creation of these organizations, leads to the payment of way less tax than keeping or passing on the money.
Most of the very rich have this same "problem" by setting up a non-profit they evade tax and by controlling the non-profit they largely get to determine where and how the money is spent, and in some ways get around the inheritance tax burden %55+ on estates over 2-4 million.
Yeah not that Steve Jobs has ever done anything wrong you know like facing a security fraud lawsuit.
Apple CEO Steve Jobs, former Apple CEO Michael Spindler as well as other high-profile company execs are named in the most recent investor lawsuit over stock option grant irregularities and may be forced to return the monies they made from grants received as part Apple's executive stock compensation plan, if the lawsuit is successful.
So when confronted with facts you change the subject quickly and not address your misinformed and blatant unsubstantiated rhetoric.....LOL... really we live in the information age perhaps you should try looking up "facts" for yourself and educate yourself instead of throwing out wild claims of conspiracy theories when its as easy as typing in a URL....we know you know how to type, a fact some of us wish was otherwise...
Its not an assumption, Big difference with someone taking medical leave and leaving the company. You think Steve Jobs wasn't involved while on medical leave.....LOL. Yeah your dreaming.
Now I think you are a troll. First time he was seen at Apple was at the end of his medical leave, so yes he wasn't involved.
Comments
FWIW, the judge in the antitrust trial was prepared to find Microsoft in contempt for supplying falsified evidence.
What does that mean? "Prepared to find?" Why didn't s/he? What happened there?
History has already proven that fact.
I think this one qualifies for a big EPIC FAIL prize. Congrats.
He was gracious here and you got to give it to him.
As for that obese creep Balmer, well...

You should have taken that nicely and kept quite, since you know that you speculate more than stock market, when it comes to your comments on Apple.
History has shown that is a FACT
Unfortunately....LOL. I'm actually right alot of time.
I think the 'unfortunate' comment was referring to Apple almost going under, not you being correct.
No, because other people quote the silly Dud comments, so they show up anyway.
It's call skim reading then. Try it- you can actually read through a lot of nonsense in life. Do I need to spoon feed every solution for some?

It was funny the way it read anyways. Lets hope in any case Steve Jobs does a better job then Bill Gates did finding a replacement.

No. What would be really staggering would be to get the TeckStud to say something gracious about Steve Jobs
