No Flowers for Gates?
Turns out people have left flowers at the Apple store in Reston. I don't expect Bill Gates to have flowers left when he dies: first there's no Microsoft stores; second he never established the personal connection that Jobs did. But I do expect ambassadors and other figures from various countries to express their condolences. Jobs never did charity; Gates is, and is making a difference. To me that makes him a bigger man.
