Hard to say. Even though he's slipped through paying some penalties, he
couldn't avoid that cream pie in the face he got a couple of years ago
while visiting Europe.

Its funny but I don't harbor any ill will against Bill, even though I do
believe MS is a monopoly and have experienced the results of MS tactics
before in a competing corporate environment. In fact, I think if I were
stuck in an elevator with someone for two hours, and my choices were
Larry Ellison, Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, Id probably pick Bill. He seems
more in control of his temper than SJ, and more in control of his ego
than LE.
