All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

Microsoft, Bill Gates. Bill Gates has over $2bn dunno what that is in squids (allot). So what need dose Microsft have with the hardware market and the gamming market when Microsoft could happily make money from there software market.

It also saddens me to here Rare has sighed a contract to develop exclusivly for the XBox. Dose this meen donkey kong will be on the XBox. I hope it stays with nintendo.

Well I thought he had $4,5 billion (yet I may be very wrong)... And who has more money, will want it even more... ;)
Hmm, I think that Donkey Kong will stay on Nintendo... I somehow can't imagine a game with such a style be on X-Box...

Well either way he has over $2bn. But I was guessing.

So OK, he has monopoly. Why cant he make his products cheeper. He has loads of money. More money than he could probably spend in a life time. Yet he still whants to rip us off!!!

I understand him... Try to make an operating system for 18 years. Would you sell it with a low price? ::)
Actually, I think Microsoft should lower the prices...

Well.. Rare made some good games but i think they've been going downhill lately. It's probably a good thing that Nintendo let them go off to make xbox games instead. How many people liked Starfox Adventures?

Donkey Kong would be Nintendo's property.. I doubt you'll see that on the XBox (except as an easter egg)
