To give him trust might be naive, but giving him credit for the things he has done is just a recognition of fact. He donated $28,000,000,000 to a philanthropic organization. Refusal to "give him credit" for that is just being petty. He did it. Conversely, he engaged in anti-competitive behavior with Netscape, so he gets the credit for that too. Loving him for the former is every bit as pragmatic as hating him for the latter, but neither act means that is who he is as a person. People are far too complex for that.
