Who is Hu?
"And if you ever need advice on how to use Wkindows, I'll be glad to help."
There goes Bill Gates's time. "Hey Bill, how about offering that to the pukes you sold your stuff to?"
I wonder if he is going to get an award from Hu.
It would kinda be like when Ford got Germany's highest decoration for foreigners, the Grand Cross of the German Eagle, in July 1938.
"I certainly look forward to the extension of your cooperation with China," Hu said.
Hmmmmmmm. Wonder what it was that Bill Gates cooperated about.
Gates is in a no win situation, either lower the cost of the OS to China or they will pirate it. At least this way he gets something, and also keeps marketshare.
Bill Gates, Bill Clinton. Do the Chinese have a thing for Bills?
Hey, let's cut the guy some slack; he's only got more money than the combined Gross National Products of Malaysia, the Philippines, Belgium, the Netherlands, Monaco, and Paraguay rolled into one. He probably figures he'll need a little extra for his retirement.
The big deceit continues.
Those who run China are unelected, brutal, murdering dictators.
There is no evidence trading with China is moving the Chinese people any closer to the freedom to talk and act with the liberty they have so long been denied.
In fact, people like Bill Gates are helping the murderers put more controls on the freedoms of the Chinese people.
Hell must have a special reserved section for Americans reaping profits from Chinese tyranny.
American businessmen have become partners with Satan in the brutal Chinese tyranny they encourage to continue.
Gates, you hypocrite. You are one of the richest men on Earth and you want to become richer on the backs of a long-suffering and imprisoned people.
Gates and his fellow businessmen are a disgrace to freedom and the proud history of liberty in America. They covet all possible liberty for themselves while offering none to the brutalized and enslaved people of China who are helplessly imprisoned with generous American financing.
Gates should see his Redmond, Washington, Microsoft program developers arrested and thrown in prison for their free thinking. Then, he'd have a taste of what he is encouraging in China.
His main software product should be called "Windows of Tyranny," or "Barred Windows."
Hellooooo? Tweety Bird, where arrrrre you???
Gates is a bootlicking toady for the Chicoms. Agreed.(And this dinner at Gates' house before going to DC and the White House is a sly slap in the face at the President.) The Chinese are also making noise about getting people to learn Chinese...they'd like to change the world's lingua franca from English to Chinese. Early this am, NPR droned on and on about Gates' dinner, music in the trees, one hundred guests strolling the lawn, drinking cocktails...just like the Chamber of Commerce. (The music was dumb. Toasts were dumber.) Gates draped the Chinese flag all over Microsoft.
He does not appear to be a friend of the US.
If you think that M$ is the only tech company kissing China's ass, you're smoking crack. Apple, Intel, IBM, etc are all in their puckering up for Hu's booty.
