		tmister on Oct 10, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: “I wrote FAT on an airplane, for heaven's sake” Gates is one of those rare people who is at a time a good developer, good manager and a cunning businessman. I started to appreciate him after watching Triumph of the Nerds documentary series. I literally loled for 5 minutes after watching Gates in an event parodying IBM which was organised by Jobs http://youtu.be/riyAe4BKAng?t=20m1s.
