Bill Gates is very stupid. he always has been. Paul Allen was the smart one. Bill Gates was just a sleazy cheater who figured out to screw everyone else by forming an illegal monopoly with dirty tricks and threats to pc makers when they wanted to carry competitor's software..

All the hugely successful inventions involve the smart guy who made the invention and the sociopath who turned it into a cash cow.

Bill Gates isn't a computer engineer, he's the son of a patent lawyer. Kind of like how Einstein, the genius inventor, was a patent clerk. Everything Gates patented was modified code from open source projects, mostly from universities and computer clubs. He's a thief, but he had the US legal system and a friendly media to back up his theft.

Gates is supposedly one of the biggest patent trolls around.
