    The names have the same amount of letters (if you don't count the space as a letter)! Did Bill G. do this on purpose or was it just coincidence... Forgive me if this was already posted or if I'm just late notifying this. Behind every great black man...             ... is the police. - Conspiracy brother Blog[^]

        This should be false if we will take as real names, Gates name from its ID card and MS name from company registrar.

            I guess you're bored if you start thinking about this. We were discussing to use a straw between venus and mars to transport some excess coal di-oxide from venus to mars. Just as useless as discussing the relation between the name of Bill and MS. WM.

              What about GWBasic? Could it be that the enigmatic Mr Gates somehow prepended his initials, in reverse, to Basic as part of a long-term strategy of global domination or is it just all complete bollocks?

                More of a conspiracy is with Alan Sugar and Amstrad. Did anyone notice how the first three letters of Amstrad match up with his name - Alan Michael Sugar. Apparently it stands for Alan Michael Sugar Trading. Spooky, it's almost as if he surreptitiously named his own company after himself or something. The crafty swine.

                  When you think of it, someone named 'Gates' selling 'Windows'.. They are just missing a software called 'Wall' (as in fireWall perhaps?) and they cover the full house :laugh:

                    I always thought that any security software that Microsloth developed would, naturally, be called "Bill's Gate".

                      Actually, I was bored! I was at the visual studio launch party and I was waiting until the database quiz started. It quiz started 30 minutes late... Behind every great black man...             ... is the police. - Conspiracy brother Blog[^]

                            As a side note, I always thought that "Windows" doesn't create an exact mental image of something secure :)
