Currently there are 8 iPhone threads, 2 iPod threads and an iPad thread on the first page of the tech forum. Think different, buy Apple products.

Meanwhile the Bill Gates Foundation carries on with giving away billions of dollars a year and really helping people around the world.......


Bill Gates also pays no tax, ripped his product off IBM, and Active-X is windows only.

He is just like the next sleazeball billionaire

You are quoting an advertising campaign that ended in 2002.

Yes, because the world is either black or white. Nothing in between.

I don't get it. Windows has 91.3% of the market share compared to Mac's 5.26% - and Apple users are following the herd? I think part of the reason Apple's sales shot so high is that many Apple users buy multiple Apple products. It doesn't necessarily translate to a higher number of people choosing Apple over PC (although the trend of switching to Mac does seem to be accelerating).

Gates ripped off IBM. IBM laid off many hardware specialists when software (Microsoft) became king. My dad got laid off. I buy apple now.
