I would think he is bothered by it as much as he was with the Apple operating system. While Linux is a great system it still is open source and has a long way to go to beat out the massive marketing capabilities of Microsoft. Every computer you buy, that is not Apple, has the Windows operating system. What a marketing tool and great foresight that was.

No, bill gates is genius he knows what to do. Just like starwars he knows how to counter attack.

Why would he be? Windows still dominates easily over any other OS, especially Linux. The percentage of those using Linux is paltry compared to those using Gates' software.

I don't think so. Even if he does, it might be just a little bit of feeling. I think he was too far ahead with profits made from previous years to worry about today's competitors. But that is just my opinion only.
