That Bill Gates, he’s such a joker. Apparently you shouldn’t bother attempting to be a billionaire like him; after a million, it’s pretty much the same. I think Roman Abramovich might disagree, what with his frigate-sized yachts, but we get you Bill — a packet of Walkers is still only 50p. [GeekWire]

Hey Conman,
Apologies — the “continue reading” is auto-generated, so on short posts like this there’s nothing we can do to stop the link appearing.
The meat of the story is over at GeekWire, and we didn’t want to take too much, so we can encourage people to check out the full transcript.
Thanks Kat Hannaford, but there’s no need to apologise. I’ll rephrase my point, and follow it with my often irrelevant opinion.
Nugatory Wikipedia references aside, what’s the point of this article? You could have just hyperlinked the headline to GeekWire and saved us the eight seconds it took to read it.
Honest question — does FuturePLC issue a quota of articles you have to hit?
“Short posts like this” make GizmodoUK look like a content farm, sorry content farm.
Indeed I did. Worth a read, hence the blockquote.
Ok Bill, well I will happily take your unwanted cash! Thank you please!
