Looks like the interviewer is a smarmy jackass trying to play “gotcha” games with Mrs. Gates. I think she handled him/her/it with tact and grace.

She recycles, too, goes shopping with one of those cotton shopping bags, drinks “fair trade” coffee, and drives a Pious.

The writer and interviewers sound like morons. Does the author really think that depriving your kids just makes them want it more?

Idiots never heard of parenting have they?

Funny how if it wasn't for Apple's software, while Bill was stuggling with DOS, he would have been out of business, right? Plus he wouldn't have even got started without stealing DOS, (dirty operating system) from Seattle computing in the late 1970's.

Maybe one of the reasons why they give so much of their interest on their billions away is guilt over the theft and greed they had to do to get where they are.

And just how many X-Boxes does the writer think are in the Jobs household. When the very household itself comes from the earnings of one company people in the household tend not to buy from their competitors.
