    If someone owns a company that has a product, I can assume they use that product.

    The Gates mansion is filled with all sorts of testbed systems, such as Surface, and the Digital paintings....I' sure he has some mongrel XP/Vista/Test system that makes retail systems look so 5 years ago.

    He's a closet Linux user, only uses Windows when others are around.

    I bet he uses Linux as the OS of his servers.Well, thats a bad guess but I'm a Linux cultist, soooo...

    I think he needs no operating system cuz he can see and manipulate the source code with his mind like in the matrix and that is the way he communicates with all sorts of digital media and devices. LOL

    no he probably uses some uber sophisticated test system that will not be equivocated in the main stream for like 20 years. his PC is prolly like a 100 core BEAST with 200 GIGS of DDR4-2000Mhz RAM a 1000 TB HD and four 10 GB NVIDIA 99,000 cards in a quad SLI with 16- 60inch plasma monitors. the whole thing is prolly the size of a beeper is silent and produces zero heat and has a built in OC3 WIRELESS modem and a 72 hours battery life.

    edit: o yea and the only thing he uses it for is to play pong and solitare.
