Pathetic little man...

>>> Partly in response to pressure from Apple, Microsoft is now positioning itself to be a key player in the growing market for digital movies, pictures and music.
It is working with partners such as Samsung to provide its Windows Mobile smart phone software to nearly 70 handset makers. >>>

Of course nothing lasts forever but these comments smack more of spite and envy than one of his insightful and always (cough) accurate predications as he could never stand anyone having something successful (or "owning" a market) that MS doesn't monopolize in some way.

Someone is finally beating him (MS) in a particular (and hot) market and Gates just cannot tolerate it.

Though he's much like a spoiled child who needs to grab and possess every available toy in the play room so no one else can have or use them, even if he can play with only one toy at a time.
