Bill gates was the greatest man ever born changed history and the world for ever?

Question

bill gates the great

Answer 1

Gates is a great opportunist but I would hardly say he was a great man.  He bought DOS from someone who stole it and Gates knew it was not written by the guy he bought it from but that's how he began his fortune.  Windows was certainly stolen from the Mac OS so he definitely knew how to make money but that doesn't make him great and he didn't really change history either.  But something tells me this was just meant as a joke anyway.

Answer 2

One of Gate's great accomplishments was to force Steve Jobs away from his endeavors.

That gave us Apple and its products. Thanks Bill!

Microsoft is one of the lousiest computer programs ever. No professional has ever used it, never will.

Gates is rich, because IBM gave him a PC platform, and he became a ruthless businessman. He created a company, enjoyed a monopoly position, and sold a lot of product.

Answer 3

not at all

He is very smart, and a good businessman (great even), but there were other operating systems when he bought the DOS operating system and sold it to IBM.  

Other OS would have filled the void that DOS filled.

Answer 4

Not "the greatest", but "one of the greatest".

Answer 5

He just got lucky, and also stole the idea of windows from Steve Jobs from Apple.  If Apple had allowed people to run their op sys on any computer, Gates would not be well known.

  It just turned out good for him.  That does not make him great.
