Bill Gates and Warren Buffet did not "do what they did" for money. It
is obvious! They did it because it was a challenge, and they plain
liked doing it. While Bill may not have been "completely" ethical in
the game of his, he did convince people to buy his software! They were
not forced. This is an important point that I cannot believe is so
often overlooked. You and everybody else could have refused to buy
any of it, but they did, by the bazillions.
Why cannot people do what they like to do and profit enourously from
it? He did not make horrible software. If he did, it would not be
successful. It may not have been the "best", but the masses decided
it was "what to buy." Shrewd marketing? You bet! Since when is that
a criminal act? He made an operating system, and begged others to
write for it. I call that a genius move. You hate him for it like he
murdered people. We could have 12 operating systems that are not
compatible with certain software.
