More self-serving nonsense

Exactly why should American Scientists work hard on a technical vision largely realized and mostly in decline?

OS were invented in the middle 60s, not by Microsoft. As for everything else, Bill Gates has no competence to comment on that. He isn't a Scientist, he isn't an investor, he isn't a religious prophet.

The technologies placed in front of you by the press are just what they can understand. It is not life; life takes unexpected turns, like the WWW or the very cheap PCs we now have.

You didn't read it here, first.

Start A School Gates

If Bill Gates has an issue with the public education system then how hard would it be for him and the other multi-billion dollar corporations to create their own schools, paid for out of their pockets. Stop leaning on the government's public education system, Bill. It might not be great but imagine if Bill and his other rich buddies had to pick up the slack. Put up or shut up, Bill.
