” Bill Gates isn’t worried about advancing technology”
You obviously don’t know Bill.
“You obviously don’t know Bill.”
But I know Jack!
Gates #1 goal was to make money, as it should have been. I don’t have a problem with that. But, lots of wonks want Microsoft to be like Linux. Leading edge, quirky, but innovative, and fun.
You go by what they do, not what they say. Windows NT server? Really? Server support for crappy old 16bit apps until Windows 7 64 bit. Same base kernel since NT? I use Windows 7. I like it. But for fun I play with Ubuntu. Amazing what a bunch of motivated people can do on their own.
I’m not here to bash Gates, or Microsoft. They fill a need. But, they are not worried about cutting edge. They are followers. They see trends, and try to copy and make money, or just buy the company in question!
