It's shocking to see how you really believe in the philanthropic machine set up by Gates, who's a $59 billion man, as opposed to Jobs, who was "only" $8 billion, and according to many sources did a lot of charity donations without the glam of Gates and his wife..

Uh and regarding all the accusations of slave labour, welcome to the world of capitalism.. Do you really think they had an agenda for slave labour, or that Microsoft didn't receive similar allegations?

You wise guys remind me of this genius here:

Just because he owned the patents does not mean he invented them. How do you think Gates was able to steal the ideas if they were legally owned by someone else? How many patents for clean technologies are 'owned' by the oil men? give me 1 example of a technology or system that is original and from his brain. touch screens? no. GUIs? no. err... what then?

I don't believe in Gates philanthropic machine, but I do believe in his verified donations to charity as well as publicly speaking out about issues that effect us all and are obviously important to him, so according to your many sources... link please. And those links you did post? well they all imply that he gave nothing to charity. Honestly, Bono and a Hedge fund manager?

I have been bombarded today by many people expressing their blind love for Jobs and his empire, every single forum I look at has an identical post, facebook no less than 7 friends etc... Apples marketing dept. really did a number on a lot of folks huh? get things in perspective. Or alternatively just insult us 'wise guys' if it makes you feel better. Flame me all you want, go on, prove to me that you were sold on that iCrap, Hook, line and sinker. My views on Apple and their products are based on personal experience, not bigoted prejudice.

Every idiot is capable of speaking against slavery (as you well show here), but unless you live on a mountain feeding yourself with berries you do boost the "slavery market" 90% of the times you buy something with "Made in China" written on it.

..has anybody said we're pro-slavery? If thinking of Steve Jobs as a genius and innovator does, the same principle applies for all the Made in China stuff you buy.

hey genius, you're using a PC that is running on software developed by Microsoft (who also has allegations of slavery) and which most components are made in China..

Go troll somewhere else.

if you were not pro slavery you would care about me speaking out against it...
also i dont really buy things, especially cheap things i dont need that are generally made in china... im not the typical foolish american...i dont have a "smart phone"...i just have a cell phone...i dont know why i need a smart phone im smart enough with out a phone, i never needed a smart phone in the past, and their is no reason why i need one now...i dont need a smart phone that can do ALOT of things half asked...sorry im not a hypocrite, which seems to be the norm for alot of these people...

the only microsoft things i own are dvd...im sure the dvd making process is pretty much all automated....

do you know what an apple with a bite stands for?

tree of science anyone?

exactly, enlightenment
