I don't think BG feels he or Microsoft did anything wrong, so I agree he in not trying to atone for anything. He is just doing good because he can, and that is great. It is likely he doesn't care what some bitter geeks thinks, since was already considered a hero by larger parts of society on account of being extremely successful. (And non-geek people generally like MS products like Office, especially if they have tried the competition.) That said, we are still allowed to judge. Just saying "business is business" can justify anything and is akin to saying nothing is unethical as long as you make a profit.
