Windows has virtually provided NOTHING new to the public that wasn't already designed by another company, well ever since it founding actually. ...and continue to charge new licensing for a the next new crappy product with endless updates and security flaws.  Microsoft is a joke, has drastically hampered computer evolution, end-user interface, and if it wasn't for them being so deep in bed with the government (due to obvious national-security reasons), they would have been out of business due to anti-trust violations decades ago.  ....damn if we coulda only been so lucky.

You don't think the Gates crumb crunchers are going to inherit a billion bucks! Get a clue. Gates invests all his money and he has tons. His kids will be fine and won't have to work if they don't want to.<br>Plus THE KIDS DON"T DESERVE ANYTHING. They didn't earn it..daddy Gates did! Besides they are reaping every benefit of being rich kids...private schools, living in a 10,000 square foot mansion, vacationing at every rich place around the world and meeting every mover and shaker in the world. They will be fine. Don't boo-boo for them.<br><br>Plus....please learn to write English! I don't try to write in a language not my original so please, use the same consideration. If you spell as bad on your job as you do on the Internet you must be a joke at the company.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wiener]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 26th 2008 3:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</guid><description><![CDATA[Where on earth did you learn to write English?

I am certain they will be provided good educations and enough money gifted to them prior to the death's of their parents to do quite well.  They can buy them houses and give them many advantages and I would suspect that even without inheritance they will do quite well on their own.  Warren Buffett made the same choice.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Linda]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 26th 2008 2:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</guid><description><![CDATA[BUY A MAC!!!!!!!!!!!! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MACLUVER]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 26th 2008 3:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</guid><description><![CDATA[When deciding whether to buy a Mac orr PC I kept this type BS in mind and went with the Mac.  Having an Intel chip if I REALLY need a Windows only software I know I can run it natively and would only occasionally need to put up with the poor handling of Windows system software.  Who says using a computer needs to be difficult?  I will also save long term due to not nearly as often caling on an IT person and enjoying the better reliability of the Mac.<br><br>It's like raising a puppy.  After being totally frustrated with the chewing on furniture, eatinng one of your favorite shoes, having a mess on your new beige carpeting, that when finally house broken we become so appreciative that we begin to form a bond.  I'd rater bond with a computer that I don't have to beat my brains out for it to operate properly.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[white_jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 26th 2008 3:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</guid><description><![CDATA[Is windows the product of all the H1B workers that Mr. Gates loves so much???]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cynthia]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 26th 2008 2:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'd rather Bill leaves nothing to his children than have them create another silver spoon waste of oxygen like Paris Hilton]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Big Doug]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 26th 2008 2:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</guid><description><![CDATA[The difference between the children of Bill Gates and Paris Hilton is that she (apparently) grew up in a family that did not put much emphasis on education. Clearly, Paris wants to do NOTHING but socialize. <br>I seriously doubt that the Gates' children will be allowed to forgo college, even tho' Bill dropped out.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Susan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 27th 2008 12:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</guid><description><![CDATA[people people people<br>                          get off the hate/envy train......paleeze! the gates couple have been responsible for more sincere charity and helping hands around the world then anyone in our lifetime!!  from continent wide vaccination programs to schools food and hospitals the list is stunning.<br>                       since we haven'[t heard their kids squawking about the inheritance set up, why is it our business??  you all go start an industry and make billions and then see how much good you can do before flinging mud on the few people out there with a social conscience.  also the top 10 folks in gates company did the same as he did with their share of the loot.  check it out.  its good to be green these days, just not with envy! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[pat sher]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 26th 2008 3:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/06/25/sometimes-bill-gates-hates-windows-too/</guid><description><![CDATA[Clearly, CEO's and other higher level management need to use the tools, services, and products they produce.

Windows is an inferior OS but Gates has managed (sometimes including through coercive means - just as other monopolistic entrepreneurs before him) to convince the public to buy it.  If the public were to demand other operating systems on the computers they buy, Microsoft would respond by improving Windows.  Until then,the poor performance will continue.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[gagblue]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 26th 2008 3:21PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
