[ale] What the peasants are supposed to know about Bill Gates

[Dow Hurst]

I believe there may be some Linux users who are ALE members that work
at/for Microsoft.  A gentle reminder that we should take care in our
jokes that we don't inadvertently hurt a friend.  I love the jokes so I
hate to even post this.  But, I felt I ought to bring this up.  Now,
back to the jokes since it is said!  I read the article and wondered
about it.  What was true, what was false, and how can people overlook
the evil business practices that Bill allowed/encouraged in the past
years?
