Jobs + Gates = ?

So, at a digital/electronics conference recently, both Steve Jobs and Bill Gates were asked to talk a bit about their own contributions to computing, the other's contributions, and where they think things will be in a few years. Interesting stuff, if you happen to follow this kind of thing.

I do have to admit that I can identify with Bill Gates much better than I can with Jobs. Although I love macs, possibly to a fault, (POSSIBLY), Gates is so much more the "geek" of the industry. In the afforementioned discussion, he talks about how he looks at things and thinks about the mechanics behind them, while Jobs just knows how humans think and what they want. I still don't particularly agree with Microsoft's business ethic, though. So.
