when has bill gates or microsoft provided any innovation to the computer industry? never! windows has been an inferior OS compared to the mac since the beginning. microsoft has never had the best of class products except for being sued the most by governments. gates is just upset that his people didn’t think of this first. apple has been picked the most innovative company in the world for the last few years for good reason.
