engadget names June 27th “Bill Gates Day”

engadget is marking today “Bill Gates Day” in honor of the big man stepping down from the top spot at arguably the biggest, baddest company in the world. Love him or hate him, Gates revolutionized the world. His company, his philosophy, and his business scheme have been successful, idolized, and mimicked by many.

I remain hopeful that he will be equally successful in his philanthropic work at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. So far, they have been better than even the U.S. in monetary aid for underprivileged countries. Maybe Mr. Ballmer & Co. over at MSFT could do equally as good and hand over some of those massive, massive assets the company holds from, well, being a monopoly.

Congrats, Mr. Gates, you deserve it!

    Does this mean now that he doesn’t have to hide the fact that he probably uses an iPhone?
