The entire advertising industry runs on fear?fear of missing out on the benefits of the latest whatever, for starters. But Bill Gates has been shamelessly exploiting the ignorance of his interviewers and Microsoft's customers. I don't think the richest man in the world gets that way by being delusional either. I think he lies every time he opens his mouth. Thanks for pointing out the obvious to those who don't know any better than to believe him.
