Like lambs to the slaughter. We really are in the wrong business. I think if
we packaged up an addictive chemical and marketed it as cleverly as Bill Gates
did with Winders we'd all be billionaires.

"As long as they are going to steal it, we want them to steal ours. They'll
  get sort of addicted, and then we'll somehow figure out how to collect sometime
  in the next decade." -- Bill Gates, Chairman, Microsoft Corp, 1998

Brilliant prediction.
