Steppin’ Down

[CES 2008] Some people love him, others hate him but regardless of what one thinks of Bill Gates, he is (and has been) a part of the computing history. He is going to step down and “retire” (he will still attend board meetings) to work on reducing underdevelopment via his foundation. Personally, I like his “normal guy” personality, and although he can be a brutal businessperson, he is not a brutal businessperson with a primadona attitude. I have not donated to his foundation yet, but I feel like it would be more efficient in getting the job done than other established charitable entities. What’s your take on his legacy and his work with his foundation?
