Sounds like a pretty cool house.

To the guys ripping Gates for spending 97 million of HIS OWN MONEY on HIS OWN HOUSE....you guys need a hobby, something constructive to direct all that petty negative energy on. You guys are real world n00bs. Who do you think got the money? Thats right, other hard working individuals/workers that had bills to pay. That is $97,000,000 (please note all the zeros) gates put right back into the economy - concrete, timber, glass, electronics, labor, etc. I'm sure there was sales tax on much of it and he pays his property taxes on $97 million each year. Not to mention the staff for a place like that. Who are you to say he isnt doing his part? And even if he wasnt, who are you to define how he should. Its all part of living in a free country, you can do what you want, but the down side is, Bill can too. Think you can live with that?
