		<description>How much stock does Bill Gates have in Apple anyway (besides the $150 million to satisfy the legal eagles)? And did he sic the SEC on Apple, after Apple volunteered they made an accounting error and got rid of the perps?

Did Microsoft set up MoAB?

Is Apple paying Bill Gates to do  ads for them? His mouth will most certainly sell more Macs than the two boys that have been doing the Apple ads could possibly ever do.

This month, hug your Mac for Valentine&#039;s Day...and thank Apple for great products.</description>

		<description>Umm... Macalope, you must have your monitor turned up seriously bright if you think the text background is easily readable?
Your points are all true but &#039;Liar, Liar, pants on Fire&#039; scans much better to my ears ;-&gt;&gt;</description>

		<description>Vista is the most recent release of an operating system and it&#039;s behind the times. The fact that it&#039;s largely a knock-off and just barely as good as the competition &lt;i&gt;is&lt;/i&gt; about Vista.</description>

		<description>To a degree, I feel sorry for Bill. I mean here we have what amounts to years and years of work, finaly being released, and it is an impressive piece of work (even if it is still a bit behind the times) and instead of talking with people about his work, he has to spend his time listening to people ask him why they shouldn&#039;t just buy a mac. That&#039;s got to be irritating. Basically every stupid pundit who thinks he&#039;s funny is getting Bill on their show and then turning around and making him do a side by side with OS X.

It was cute the first time with the Zune and the Shuffle incident, but since then it&#039;s gotten really tired and really old. Especially because it&#039;s being perpetuated by pundits who wouldn&#039;t know a floppy disk from their ass if it weren&#039;t for the teleprompter.

It&#039;s all well and goo to ridicule microsoft, but if you&#039;re going to interview bill about vista, interview him about vista, not OS X.</description>

		<description>Bill is a revisionist.  Just like the old Chinese Red Guard,  Microsoft likes to rewrite history to their own making.

Fortunately these days it&#039;s become harder for them to get away with it. But oh lord,  what a pile of lies they spew forth.

The Apple ads are rigth on the money and he knows it. I hope Apple gets even more vicious.

Sleep well Bill!</description>

		<description>The man knows no shame...

I can remember the first time I saw him being interviewed on the BBC. I quote:

&quot;Microsoft invented Multimedia&quot;.

Yes the guy was actually trying to show how his new version of Windows could play sound or video clips like it was some revolutionary event.

I think quicktime had been around for about 5 years by then.

Nobody challenged him then and it looks like no one is challenging him now.</description>

		<description>Speaking of pants (liar, liar, pants on fire), I saw Bill G on The Daily Show and I noticed how big his pants are compared to the rest of his body. Like he is storing something in there. Maybe more lies?</description>

		<description>There were so many things that bothered me about it

At no point do they point out that it’s on a MS run site. Usually they have a small disclaimer at the end.

It was heavily edited. There are so many square brackets, I thought it was obj-C.

I’d say more, but I suspect that the editing did it in.</description>

		<description>Pardon the profanity, first thoughts that come to mind.

&quot;And then I might edit a high-definition movie and make a little DVD that&#039;s got photos.&quot;
Bitch, we&#039;ve been doing that on iMovie for what, 2 years for HD and 5 years for anything not HD. Why isn&#039;t Bill showing us these features instead of just mentioning them?

&quot;Actually, if you look at Windows strength versus Linux, or versus anything, it’s done very well, because we have this big ecosystem.&quot;
Oh yeah? Is that why when ever I stumble across anyone dumb enough to buy a Windows machine their first and major concern is anti virus software.

&quot;I don&#039;t think the over 90 percent of the [population] who use Windows PCs think of themselves as dullards&quot;
No Bill, no body ever thinks of themselves dullards, but it doesn&#039;t mean they aren&#039;t. Do you think massively retarded people know they are retarded?

&quot;Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine.&quot;
Wow, I mean wow, did I just read that right? Fuck Bill, not only did you just invite the entire collective of hackers and crackers to rip apart Vista (which they are going to do anyway because you are gay) you had some damn lies fall out your word hole at the same time. Bitch I&#039;m going to ball this (fist) up if you don&#039;t watch it.

&quot;As we sit down and think, what are the things we&#039;re going to do in the next release, there&#039;s no shortage of radical things that will be happening in the operating system.&quot;
Bill, you mean as you shit birds sit and wait to see what Apple does there will be no shortage of radical things.</description>

		<description>&quot;Does honesty matter in these things, or if you’re really cool, that means you get to be a lying person whenever you feel like it?&quot;

So what&#039;s Bill&#039;s excuse?</description>
