Wow, Bill must be off his medication

He's starting to sound like a slightly watered down version of Ballmer. He says the following about the Apple iPhone:

So the key trend to look at is the importance of software and then say who really has shown the ability to do strong software? In some ways, just we have. If you define it more broadly, yes, Apple has done a few things well. Google has done a few things well. But the leaps in software and the kind of long-term investments we’re making make it clearer than ever that we picked the right business, and the right place to contribute.

I can't believe he said that with a straight face. I know I'd certainly laugh in anyone's face that was spewing that type of total, confounding bullshit. He's riffing the company most of the features of Vista were designed to emulate, Apple, and Google, probably the biggest innovator of the last 10 years. Bill's uncanny ability to fuck people over is what made Microsoft a giant, but now he's turning into a big philanthropist like most robber barons do when they want to redeem their images. It must be pretty embarrassing to hear yourself deny the truth like this.
