Good for them!

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

I know it's a crazy reason...but Bill Gates' philanthropy is one of the reasons I don't switch to an Apple. That, and I'm getting too old to learn how to operate anything other than a PC.

Thanks, Bill!

That's just a truly wonderful thing for one person to do. I'm kind of speechless.

The Gates' are beyond classy. Good to see them not spening their money on frivolous things.
