    You know, if you want to pick on Bill Gates for his business practices, his attitude towards open source software, or any of his other actions or beliefs, knock yourself out.

    Having a rather thick skin, I'm not terribly offended or anything, but why, on a "News for Nerds" site, are you picking on the man for no other reason than, well, being a nerd? And why, pray tell, is this rather personal malicious and unwarranted attack modded up as "Funny"?

    And last, but not least, I doubt that a married multibillionaire (with three kids, incidentally) needs to masturbate very often no matter how nerdy he is, but not being privvy to his personal life (or a multibillionaire), I'm just guessing.
