Bill Gates: Quote for March 5, 2009

Get real, will ya? You and I are both like guys who had this rich neighbor - Xerox - who left the door open all the time. And you go sneaking in to steal a TV set. Only when you get there, you realize that I got there first. I got the loot, Steve! And you're yellin': "That's not fair. I wanted to try to steal it first."
Anthony Michael Hall acted as Bill Gates
Noah Wyle acting as Steve Jobs is also featured in this clip.

This is a re-enactment of Bill Gates (Microsoft) talking to Steve Jobs (Apple). Xerox was the true inventor of the modern "Windows" type operating system. Steve Jobs of Apple actually first incorporated Xerox ideas into the Macintosh computer. Bill Gates borrowed these ideas from Apple and created Microsoft Windows. Although both companies got their share of the loot, Microsoft was far more successful with its Windows operating system.
