He tried to sell the original DOS to IBM for $70,000. They turned it down, so he went and started Microsoft. Want to blame someone? Blame the IBM execs. Personally, I think they did the world a favor. Gates is primarily hated by some because they are jealous. He is a great marketer. He does have stirring visions, and may help to privatize space in the 21st Century.

If you think he's an "anti-christ" wait'll you see some of the next century's trillionaires.
