More "Me Too" bull shit. You may hate Gates for one reason or another, but have to admit he's one smart son of a bitch, who built a company that's one of the largest in the world from nothing. He's brilliant, both at business and technology. The board of Microsoft made a mistake pushing him out because of a long term affair with an employee. It sounds like she got pissed off at him for one reason or another and decided to put the screws to him.
Don't get me wrong, Harvey Weinstein deserved what he got. But Gates didn't deserve this.

this woman probably didn't report to Gates either. but he was married by then, a scandal right there, and i'm sure Gates being CEO could certainly influence whoever this woman did report to .. think about it, you are a senior manager or director, and you know Gates is banging one of your programmers .. are you gonna deny her a raise or a promotion knowing that's going to get back to Gates?
