Highly unlikely but I really dont care, spend it all on a 50million dollar crapper if it makes u happy gates. hmmm I think ill go invent a software better than windows, maybe ill be rich then. Watch out windows, here comes "Doors".

[quote="Captain Bunny":4142c][quote="CaP bUsTa":4142c]all i have to do is bang his daughter so i can inherit everything evil:[/quote:4142c]

actually you wouldnt inherit everything. his daughter would get her share you wont get any unless his daughter gave you some or you got on well with mr gates that he put you in his will however. i dont think mr gates would be too impressed that you just "banged" his daughter so instead would probably have you "removed" from the face of the earth anyway.

but it was a nice thought of yours im sure.[/quote:4142c]

I don't think he could "remove" busta, I'll be covering his back.
and I would have 100 cheap rent-a-cops outnumbered 1 to 100, which is strictly unfair to the dumb rent-a-cops. M16:

Gates can't steal teh idea because that will probably get him shot (or Lucas will order someone at ILM to invent the lightsaber so to chop him like pastrami) swordfight:

Only thing I can say is....

WOOOOP PAAA DEEEE DO!
Who gives a rats POOH!
It not your money so here's my shoe!

Quit crying about what Bill Gates does with HIS money. So what if he makes smart business decisions and gives money or software to other countries or whatever causes he has in mind. Its his perogative, like it or not. So what are you suggesting, he keep all of it to himself, and not care about the future of his company? He is a SMART business man, and I see nothing wrong with him for what he has done.

Some people claim he stole this or that, but he bought it very cheap because they couldn't market it. He made himself into a business man, plain and simple.

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?

Funny thing, I saw an interview with Dale Jr. (nascar) about how he loves online games, Nascar games inparticular. He said he finally quit telling people who he was, no one ever believed him. You never know who is really on the other end.
