OK. News of the century !! This is going to blow your head off. Bill Gates, master mascot for Microsoft is slowing things down because he wants to devote more time to his Charity organisation. Good stuff. That’s what I will do someday too when I have a few billion dollars in my pocket.

The man that made computers what they are today will step down from his daily work in 2008. He’ll stop working on hardware development and other technologies, but remain on the Microsoft board. Most of his time will be spent contributing to the Gates Foundation, which he and his wife Melinda set up to reduce the inequalities in America and around the world. The organisation has donated more than US$10.5 billion dollars to charity since its inception in 2000.
