I believe is true for China, where Bill Gates is praising their Communist dictators and low-cost labor. But in the United States, consumers are getting tired of Microsoft's miserable, low-quality crap and Gates's anti-American rhetoric.
It's remarkable to see how many FReepers are dumping Windows and switching to Macs recently. (And a few have switched to Linux too)
Especially since they are giving money to a known commie.
Gate's donations to Republicans FAR OUTWEIGHS Jobs'.
Think about that for a little bit...
Did you notice the consistent smug vitriol aimed at Mac users by the PC side? I sure have. It's similar to the way conservatives relate to the Rats... we say: "You have beliefs we don't happen to share. Whatever..." - they say: "How DARE YOU! We hate you! You're IDIOTS!" ... well, the Mac users say: "We like Macs! They're great. You like PCs? Oh." -- and the PC users rant: "How DARE YOU! We hate you! You're IDIOTS!"...
See? Same thing. All PC users are Rats in disguise :-P.
