How sweet of them thinking of the poor guys.<br><br>

Well he could work in the MBU department - nothing really surprising , except for the bone head fact that the gov can retrieve even deleted emails .<br><br>

The giving that the Gates do outside of MS is indeed charitable and philanthropic — and I believe sincere. What the corporation does is all about marketing. Period. And I will say the same about Apple, and any other corporation.<br><br>

Very true<br>Just that Gates does have the money to give and he can give a lot more then Jobs , and more then any other corps - And we know how MS got it right<br><br>
