that irritates me. He does have himself a monopoly and is getting away with it. There were a lot of smaller companies that have gone under because of him. They didn't have the finances he does, and by his contracts which forced computer companies to use ONLY Windows, he forced a lot of good people out of business. There's nothing wrong with a little healthy competition but little old Billy boy didn't want that competition. He's ruthless. He does put on a good show for the public with his so-called charities. Sorry but he doesn't fool me for one minute. If he REALLY wanted to make a difference, he could pitch in a few million here and there to help out the state of CA for starts with their budget problems. Then he could expand to some of the other states--better yet he could help pay off the national debt. I doubt he would even notice a few million out of his pocket.
