		<description>well it could be all the charity work he&#039;s been doing too, and dont even try to knock that part of his life Steve Jobs fan boys. Most people who are ambitous and into making money usually die doing it. The guy was nice enough to step back smell the roses then work on helping others.</description>

		<description>Good praises, however, it wasn&#039;t the first time that people lined up to buy his products at late night. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I remember the release of Win95 (back in the day). The new, promised laden, bug laden, but good &quot;Re-start&quot; of the Windows OS. I remember people some people that were buying Win95, who really didn&#039;t know why they were buying it. The marketing along with the rolling stones song, helped launch it&#039;s popularity. Since then, no other MS OS has garnered such attention. It&#039;s nice to see a successful American company be eye to eye with the Japanese market. Competition. That&#039;s what keeps this world turning. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To truBlue:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Apple is all fluff with older hardware. Case in point there desktops. Apple isn&#039;t all that, they look good, but there support of a product is horrible. As least MS gives 5 years of support. During that 5 years Apple brings out 4 different models of Ipod, with very little upgrade. And quickly drops support of older models. Thats not innovation, that is saturation.  But to each there own, i suppose. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;;</description>

		<description>Good riddance. Not many in IT credit Gates &amp; Co with anything other than holding up the entire industry by their monopolistic practices. Considered the &#039;Corporate O.J.&#039; , they really did get a way with murdering so many innovative ideas from smaller companies and individuals. Thank God for Unix, Linux, Apple and Sony. These companies keep innovating, not like Microsoft.</description>
