Microsoft without Gates or Gates without Microsoft

O.K. We can find a smart, sharp intellect, high IQ people any time, any where. No problems. But finding a person with all the above quality with

A) Can foresee future of world
B) Thinking always how to improve future technology that makes people life easier.
C) Constant quest for knowledge
is rare and nearly impossible.

Bill Gates is one of the kind people of our generation. Everybody hated him, when he was trying to capture world by windows operating system, he was labeled as monopolist (that was true, hey nobody is perfect!!!), and even US antitrust law nearly tumbled him from top. But even the judge presumably used Windows-Word to type the judgment, he made windows available all the places, every corner of world.Nobody could reach at his height for near future.

Almost all techno geeks were against him, complaining about buggy windows, less taste products, cunning business mind, arrogant, aggressive, greedy and not too intuitive products etc.

All are went silence when he announced that, he is going to concentrate more on philanthropy and donated 99% of his wealth to his (and his wife) charity.(so it is his wealth made angry of others first not products...just kidding..thats was almost history ;-0). I believe because of the extraordinary forward thinking power of him, he can quickly sense that something needs to done for humanity, otherwise humanity will not survive, mainly Sahara African nations and other parts of Asia. Even his kids would inherent only some portion of his wealth. Because he perhaps thinks his kids already inherent $50 billion worth of brain.

Even though, he officially retired from day by day job from Microsoft, in my opinion, he can’t stay away from Microsoft for long. Now he wants to be non executive chairman of Microsoft, want to visit Microsoft for presentation ceremonies, want to attend internet future conferences. These all are indications that he would back to at least officially consultant based job at Microsoft again.
