Trivia:

"Today, Apple is owned in a part by Microsoft, and you could say that Gates is the "winner" in the computer industry"
I just wanted to correct this statement. Microsoft doesn't own Apple, nor in its entirety or even the smallest fraction of it... The extra-judicial agreement that ended the Apple v. Microsoft lawsuit stated that MS had to buy 150 million dollars in Apple stock, as a way of injecting fresh dough in the company... Microsoft SOLD those shares less than 2 months after, as it was not allowed by that settlement to permanently own any shares of Apple Computer.
Just setting the record straight.
