That's funny, every person he went into business with said they thought they
were *using* him, he outsmarted them. I suggest you look at the facts rather

He can and has but who cares, code writing requires no intelligence. It,
like hacking, is mindless drudge-work. Like anything else innovation, true
innovation is what requires intelligence.

Fuck off you liying sack of shit. Bill Gates went out as a student and made
the deals, he did not have them put in his lap, his parents were poor, they
were by no stretch of the imagination wealthy. Infact his first corporate
headquarters was a room at motel 6, he didn't own a suit and had meetings
with business people at his room.
Look at the facts arsehole not at what you want to believe.

He is an idiot, everyone knows he has made a lot of money, this makes him a
'target'.
You know, those other idiots that like to fly airplanes into buildings.
They like 'targets'.
Don't expect Bill to live much longer due to Bill being a 'target' becuase
everyone knows he has alot of money.

And which program was that ?

Bill bought an 8088 disk operating system from a Seattle programming company
and sold it to IBM.
This is called being a Middle Man. People do this all the time. Even
dumb ones.

Name it.
Code writing takes intellegence. (To say nothing of the ability to think
'logically')

Some dogs are pretty stupid, you have to teach them to bark before they can
bark.

Which ignores the rather obvious fact that he has never known how to

Yep. Darn Smarter than me. I ain't got no smarts.

I ain't a 'target', either, which is not to be confused by some dumb asses I

wow, bill gates is sooooo smart he even get people like you to post his
crap to non-MS newsgroups.
any of you all feel like bill gates uses you like pawns in a game of
chess?
I noticed there are alot of anti-MS newsgroups to which this thread is
being cross posted.
Perhaps there is a way to make this thread on topic in these and the two
Amiga newsgroups it is being cross posted to?
If you all really don't like MS then help do something about it. Either
start supporting linux 100% or help develope auto-coding tools that MS
can't take claim sole rights to or can't buy, steal, or otherwise kill.
MS is based on difficulty of software development. A mindset of "making
people need them" via making software development to difficult for the
adverage user to make use of in any reasonable manner. Where many argue
that users don't want to code (an extreamly arrogant and dictating comment
that is extreamly false but based on software development being
complicated more then it really needs to be.) Nobody has the right to make
claims that users don't want to create, nor the right to make it sound
more complicated than it really needs to be, for everyone puts things
together in one manner or another and usually in three deminsional space.
Software, binary is two deminsional.
MS is based on software market cornering, and as things are in the way of
development, MS has the market cornered for the majority of the consumers.
The Linux movement is helping to break this market cornering, but not
solving the core problem of software development overcomplexity for the
consumers.
If the consumers are provided with the right consistant software
construction tools to use, not only will MS foundation crumble but we will
find a large degree of innovation to be returned, perhaps far beyond
anything computer science has yet brought us.
What this got to do with Amiga newsgroups?
Not a whole lot, but only in that the Commodore Amiga was the first, and
perhaps still, only system that provided the general USERS with the THREE
PRIMARY user interfaces. The CLI, the GUI and the application/functionality
SIDE-DOOR (standard application/functionality arexx "PORT") that can be
used to control the applications or functionality external to the
applications standard user interface. The ability to automate applications
and functionality use, via external to applications/functionality, methods.
Consider these three primary UIs like any of the natural triplets in
nature. ie. colors of light, red, green and blue, which can be combined to
make any of the other colors of light. Remove one and you greatly limit
what colors you can make.
MS not only puts effort into making the DOS prompt (CLI) look and feel
primitive, crude and even deceptive in there system (in comparison to any
other modern shell), but provisions for the "side-door" are as well
difficult if even known about, for the general users. Developers are not
encouraged to make use of this side door in a manner that is for the user
to make productive use of, but rather something for developers to use in
creating modular software components.
So how many colors can the MS user make with one and a 1/3 of the three
primary UIs?
Yes MS is standing on a foundation based on the deception that software
must be difficult to construct. Remove the deception and MS will fall fast
and hard in their ways to promote and manipulate consumer stupidity.
current Amiga trademark holding company intends to follow this MS mindset.
Auto-coding at the consumer level is very possible, and has been for many
many years. But do you really think the Software industry really wants it?

Bill put a decent chunky of the money people spend on his software back in R&D,
that make me feel very good. In the amiga days, CBM R&D was pathetic and I was
pissed.
So when ever I spend money on MS, I actually feel good because its used for a good
cause and quality software.

Put down the pipe, or what ever you are smoking... drink some watter, take a breath.
Ok. auto-coding tools. Is this the same tools MS running on their IBM cluster supercomputer
to program Visual Studio? The same tools use by Alias/Wavefront to code their modelers/renderers.?
I heard it was also this tools that developed the latest codec technologie in WM8...
Really cool stuff.
I use it myself, people think I'm actually coding filter graph API... the fools.

MS is not forcing you to use an assembler... they have visual studio, and support
Basic, java, etc...
If you are bithcing about the languages available, then create one of your own.
Why would Bill create a langue just for 'you' ?

when you want to do gardening you dont build a freaking foudry so you can metl the

Its no the 'still' windows support the same levels... aside that the windows shell sucks!
But then I never seem end user really use the shell.
Go to ms site, and do a search for automation....

Maybe you should wait for answers rather than assume something? But it's

Fuck you, Fack is people DO NOT want to code. The ideal Os is one that does
everything and requires no knowledge at all. to apply this everyone wants to
know how to code assumption to other fields we see just how arrogant,
moronic and totally illogical it is. you are saying that people want to be

Murray Rothbard said about people commenting on economics, and to

Actually he sold it to IBM in negotiations whereby he gained the upperhand
by being smarter than they were, he then went out and FOUND the disk
operating system. Yes he managed to successfully sell IBM something without
showing or even telling them what he had (well he didn't even have it at the
stage) He managed to out bargain busniess men who had made fortunes from
being good at that sort of thing, he managed to soutsmart men who made it
their profession to outsmart the competiton.

One. "I ain't a target, either," is highly disengenuious.
Two. In this instance the ' ' you have placed around the word target is
superfluous.
Three. The "dumb asses" comment you make is poorly directed and has no
discernable 'target' (hahaha).
Four. Your sentence is totally ambiguous.
Five. Your sentence reads that some dumb asses you know have previously made
the mistake of thinking you a target.
I am sorry for attack grammatical errors but in this case the errors are too
grave to be left untouched as the entire purpose of the sentence has been
corrupted.

What program 'waaay back' was this? Come on you wrote that he had.
All I've ever heard is that BG ported a basic interpreter from

How biased is that... Showing Bill as a Borg, rounding is salary to 666 , talking about "Design
to milk every last cents.. " etc.. etc...
But I have to agree MS automatic upgrade pricing is a joke.
BTW, spending 100$ per employe a year to have their system alway use the latest and greatest
software version is not a bad deal.
Now if a guy is spending over 600$ a year per desktop to get new version, thats stupid.
Bill is not stupid by taking advantages of stupid people... that just doean't make him a nice guy.

True, but I'll not tell them that. That would put them out of a job. And
our state is such that we could use a few more jobs today.
And tomorrow. I understand they're going to have 'clean up crews' in New
York. Maybe they can find work there ?

Don't bother. "American" is totally ambiguous. We like it that way. ;)
Maybe I should spell it out for you... ...nagh, that wouldn't make you

<snip more nonsense>
Here we have *proof* of idiocy. "MS" doesn't have "10 bit per
componant (sic)". For one thing, "MS" doesn't and never did make
graphics cards. How many bits per component is a function of
hardware, not software. Furthermore, no graphics cards use 10 bits
per component, they use 8. (32 bit graphics use 8 for red, 8 for
green, 8 for blue, and 8 for alpha.) Going even further, only Amigas
from the 1980's that haven't been equipped with a graphics card use 4
bits per component. Later Amigas have 8 (for a 24 bit palette), and
any Amiga equipped with a graphics card can, depending on the card, do
24 bit or 32 bit just fine.
So, this just goes to show that brain-dead Microsoft supporters do so
because they don't really have much of a clue about what they are
talking about.
End of discussion.

He got just the right time to join the sudden demand for home and buisness
PCs with operating systems people can use. He got a few good deals with IBM
to get dos and windows 3 on their systems, and so got his monopoly (at the
time his only competitors were unix, os/2 and apple). Once he had his
monopoly it was quite easy to become the evil dictator he is today.

Oh dear me, Stuart, you really ARE losing it.
I have never once tried to contradict you.
I have previously, on ONE occasion, asked you to clarify one statement,
but other than that, nothing.

Well, given that the answer was not mine, it would appear that you are

That is relevant to my question how, exactly?
You made a claim, I asked for proof.
At no time did I ever make any other claims or statements, let alone
ones which require an example.
Please quote your proof that I did otherwise.
And while you are at it, give us the name of this wonderous program
everyone though was impossible to write but yet Gates managed to write.
Then, and only then, I shall answer your question.

Apparently even you have some serious doubts about MS and are trying to

I forwarded one of his choice posts to ab...@i4free.co.nz. It didn't

He was referring, Roy, to the old story of Gates' implementation
managing to merit the adjective 'amazing' once in a quote from somebody,
or something. Gates supposedly wrote something in a small amount of
memory.

Programming takes a great deal of planning ability, logical thinking,
problem-solving ability, and, depending on the complexity of the
program, sometimes a lot of sheer cleverness. It's no wonder that
mindless MS-supporters can't learn how, since it takes functioning
brain cells. If it really were "mindless drudge work," software
corporations would hire bums off the street to do it for minimum wage,
and collectively save billions of dollars.

It's all about money. Harvard wants it, and _lots_ of it.
I once saw a list that disclosed the minimum GPA required for entry into a
number of universities around the country. They all had normal numbers
(3.00, 3.25, 2.75, etc) except for Harvard. You know what the minimum GPA
for that school was? An asterisk. There were no notes at the bottom of
the page, or anything - Harvard apparently either (a) has no specific
minimum GPA for new student applications, or (b) they keep it a big secret
for some reason.
The same list _did_ disclose that Harvard cost something like 5X more than
the next less expensive school on the list.

Bullshit, it just requires someone with so little intelligence that they do
not become bored after checking hundreds of lines of code for errors.

One. It requires no intelligence at all.
Two. Most people couldn't care less about programming ability, the same way
they don't care about plumbing, mechanics etc.
Three. You are just plain thick.

Really?, Q.E.D. Untill such has been done that is only your biased opinion
and can therefore be discounted as total abject nonsence.
Please try to make a point next time, i am truly bored with your lame
attempts such as the above.

I am a lot smarter than you, I recognise programming as being no different
from mechanics or plumbing, simple mindless drudge work.

I saw your point but I had assumed you were not that stupid, I had infact
thought it impossible to underestimate your intelligence, but as another
poster has pointed out, I had.
Writing music takes intelligence, it is a creation and fits under the seven
types of intelligence, as recognised by Psychologist Howard Gardner. If you
are too ignorant and stupid to know what they are I can give you a link to a
site.

They don't have a monopoly, there are alternatives and as such that means
THEY DO NOT AND CAN NOT HAVE A MONOPOLY!!!!!!!!! And even if someone has a
monopoly it is their property and they have every right to use it haw they
see fit.

Attempted monopolization is as much a crime as monopolization; if it
took him years to get it right, he was still breaking the law from his
first try. Essentially, Gates doesn't understand the difference between
earning a profit and monopolizing, so it is safe to presume, given the
huge amount of evidence in terms of Microsoft's business behavior,
strategies, and tactics, that he has been breaking the law since day 1.
