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.
