I'm on the fence with him. Here's why... Answer 2 questions: 1) Could somebody else have figured out how to apply that level of thinking on these topics, and been able to convince other to donate? 2) Could he have made another ten or twenty billion by staying at Microsoft? If the answers are "Yes" and "Yes" then he should have stayed at Microsoft. The answers might be "No" and "No" in which case you are spot on. My dogma says the former, but I think you're right. I'll accept him as the exception that proves the rule. :-)
