I think that’s a bit of a stretch for Gates, though. He stepped down from CEO almost 20 years ago and basically has spent that time giving away his and other people’s money for truly good causes. That’ll turn anyone’s perception.
I think people being able to see him as a human instead of the cutthroat business man has helped. I have to admit having some hate for the guy while he was still in charge of Microsoft. Now I can look at him in a different light...or maybe that's just because Ballmer took over...
