But you missed the point...
Bill Gates did indeed have competition along the way, but in the tradition of a great warrior one by one he decapitated them. Your example of losing their money is the old Henry Ford line, I would put my money on Gates against your three, he is much smarter and more cold blooded. If you don't think he is ruthless, and he wouldn't have achieved the success he has without being a killer at heart, just ask Oracle's Larry Ellison, or many others. Contrary to Jim Straw, he stepped on people all the way to the top, and if Jim got in his way he would step on him also, and I don't think there would be much he could do about it other than pout.
Another example of a business warrior is Sam Walton, in his down home way he destroyed Kmart, Sears etc, by being ruthless in a good old boy way. Sam Walton is one no one speaks of in being a tough businessman (I know he is dead), but just look at the competition they know he was one bad dude. SS |
