Bill Gates last working day at MS was in 2008, officially he's just a "chairman" - I think they should rather call him counselor.

Have you noticed MS stopped giving away free software for piracy victims - they now make you pay for the real thing.

What would call the W7loader? Crack instead of hack? "Workaround"? Matters, lots...
If they dont care, please explain update KB971033.
And I have some doubts MS makes the big money with retail OS'.

To build a bridge to Kinect:
We dont even know if MS is actually making money with it.
Rumor has it they are losing some with each sale - for the simple goal to get more market share.
They are in good company though:
Sony is STILL losing money in 2011 with each PS3 sold, 6%.
Funny,huh? Sony has a greedy rep too.

Royalties on games must be good.
