Bill Gates Opening some windows…
Bill Gates is no longer on tv commercials sharing a room with Jerry Seinfeld. No. He’s showing the caring side, the loving side now. His foundation is the largest non-profit. He’s still the richest man alive and it looks like he’s talking with the future president through the future vice-president. A couple of years ago this would have been scary. But today’s economy maybe having Bill Gates advise the president-elect might be something helpful.
After all Microsoft is still a global enterprise, despite a huge disaster of Windows Vista. Hmmm. The United States is still a world leader despite the huge disaster of the Iraqi war. That is only the beginning of the similarities. This country has had its share of poor leadership and buggy software as it glides through a stormy economy and a changing world. If you look at popularity in the world market, both Microsoft and the United States have been declining in popularity. Now that the president-elect is making the world take a new look at the USA, is Bill Gates trying to do the same for his founding company?
Bill Gates will never be the president of the United States, but he might hold a political position in the government. This new face of Mr. Gates will help Microsoft, since he will always be the mascot of his founding company. While he helps the world through his foundation, people will respect that and not mind a blue screen or loosing all there documents to a new virus. The cost of the software will increase and corporations and individuals will purchase the overpriced bugy software knowing that they are helping humanity.
However, few of us will hold tightly to our Unix based computers systems as we watch the average consumer file for bankruptcy. They will wonder why it costs over $400 to fix there system at Best Buy and other retailers but will be quickly reminded that there continue support of the Microsoft empire has allowed the Gates Foundation to help the world and make Bill Gates a political adviser.
