He's still CEO until the end of 2007.

I don't really hate Windows because I only use it to play games. I have a very minimal setup so if something goes wrong at least I can narrow the problem down. All my other computer use is relegated under Linux. :)

Hating microsoft is cool these days, so I will be different and like it. I also like ballet and when pens run out of ink.

He is stepping down in june of 2007. Baulmer is already taking the helm so to speak. Gates will ease out of his position ~ the transition has long since been started :)

I fell out of a window once.

I don't hate windows. I hate linux, mac, unix and most other desktop OS though. Servers are another thing all together.

I don't hate Windows. At least not Windows XP; it's the first one in years to actually work. All of the versions from 95 up until XP royally blow though. Honestly if you're running, say, Windows 98, just save yourself some time and toss your computer into the middle of the street now.

I do not hate Windows.

oh, but windows hates you. Windows hates us all :cry:

I have enough love in my heart to forgive. :love: :jess:

are you hitting on me?:confused:

Windows works just fine, it just happens to be cool to bitch about it. Much like it's cool to complain about Internet Explorer, champion alternative low-budget computing methods, and make in-jokes relating to CK's and CK's only.

This is what I mean when I say I don't hate windows.

I have a feeling Vista will bring the hate out because of DRM and [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img].

Microsoft+Xbox+PC+gaming monopoly= very sad world.:(

Well IE does actually suck pretty hard next to Firefox/Opera/A drunk hobo with a biro and a notepad.

And have any of you Windows lubbers given linux a decent try? It is ok if you love it; as long as you claim ignorance to linux!
