Very unlikely, I think. Jobs was forced out and felt he had a lot to prove. Gates left voluntarily as the richest man in the world. There's very little chance of him coming back.
- cubicle67 16y agoYes, Gates has nothing to gain by returning, but an awful lot to lose
- slantyyz 16y agoWith all the philanthropy he's involved in, I would say the developing world would have a lot to lose also.
- larrywright 16y agoI have little respect for the company he created, but a lot of respect for what he's doing with his money.

- angstrom 16y agoIt would actually look rather egotistical for him to come back. Even in Jobs case I think there's more a series of serendipitous events that rewarded intuition. Apple's success is a product of hard work and competitive complacency in the market.
