Why is the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation listed as a negative? They
are a very positive part of Windows/Microsoft and to list as a negative is
doing a diserivce.
Now we may not agree where the founds came from, but that shouldn't
discount the great work they are doing.
Its like Standard Oil and the Rockefeller Foundation. No one liked where
the Rockefeller's got their money from but they sure did a ton of good and
changed the world.
