SB,re:"desktop software domination". Did you mis-spell:
it's 'desktop software ANIMATION". Very expensive
ANIMATION. Those guys in AMZN and the Street's are
genius. Best 'marketing practice' of the decade, if not
century.

SB:

H James Morris is so good with words. He is witty and many times has his toungue in his cheek. I enjoy reading his posts. At first I was going to ask him to stick with his promise to stop needling Billy, but his posts against Billy are so entertaining, and Billy is the straight face guy who I think is easily irritated by HJM posts, which fuels more of the needling. LOL

Of course Bezos is no Bill Gates. He does not have a $ 53M mansion in Medina. Bill Gates is charitable to his neighbors, especially during construction. Compare that to John Shirley, former President of Microsoft, who is constructing his $ 17M mansion in Medina as well. But John just does not care about his neighbors: loud noise, dust flyling everywhere, construction workers have bird's eye view of the neighbors' bedrooms etc.

Bezos is no Bill Gates. Has Bezos conrtibuted even a penny to charitable causes? And this is man of the year? And investors buy Bezos snake oil? Amazon investors have nobody to blame but themselves.

Just Rambling ...

Sb, I agree, but If you put Gates and Bezos in a laughing contest...Gates couldn't even come close.
