Comic about Gates
By Techgirl

While in college and in my early career as a technology journalist, like many others, I saw Microsoft founder Bill Gates as a hard headed businessman who would do anything to earn another Billion dollars.  In those days, Microsoft and Bill Gates would do anything to crush any competition.  At college in Mumbai, many fellow students started using Linux and Firefox because they hated Microsoft so much. 

Over the last few years, Bill Gates became a changed man.  He walked away from controlling Microsoft and decided to donate 70 percent of his wealth to charity.  Gates has spent tens of millions of dollars in social work in India and now has millions of Indian fans.

Bluewater productions have announced the upcoming biography comic release of Steve Jobs' fiercest rival: Bill Gates. "Bill Gates: Co-Founder of Microsoft" is scheduled to hit shelves in March.  The comic about Gates would sell for $3.99.
