He's not. Microsoft became the Home of the Trolls when Steve "Monkey
Man" Ballmer took over. Had Gates stayed with the company, Microsoft
would have a much better future.

I hope you are not including me in that grouping of 'either', as

1) I do nothing to disrupt this group. Any posts I make are in
threads started by others, and usually several levels deep at
least.

2) I've never raved anything about Unix.

3) I've never made any wild claims about Linux superiority over
Windows, or how it's going to take over or anything like that.
The only thing I ever say is superior is the fact that while
using Linux, my PC isn't going to be infected with the couple
hundred thousand Windows malware/trojan/worm packages.

4) My typical post about Linux is just correcting mis-
information about it stated by others, in threads that are
already OT by others, (and usually several levels deep).

5) My comment in this thread about all text following the
delimiter not being included in followups was not me 'looking
for netiquette'. The topic was already netiquette there, and I
merely added a detail that many don't realize happens.

Whatever he is, he is rich. Pretty generous too, as I understand it he gives
away almost 50% of what he makes to charities, including his own.

You are really jealous of Steve Ballmer, aren't you? You calling him
"monkey man" is rather ironic seeing as how you are a "sheep-fucker".
Oops!

You really don't know much do you? Ballmer didn't "take over" he was
simply allowed to run things on a day to day basis to let the Top Dog
drive around doing what likes instead of having to come in the office
every morning and sort out problems.

Has Steve divested himself of the billion shares of Microsoft shares ?
