Goddbless: I don't think many PC gamers are upset that a genre that is better on PC is going to consoles. And yes, keyboard/mouse is better for many game types just like controllers are better for others.

PS1 and PS2 had overheating and disc read errors but those things had solutions other than mailing it back and waiting a month.

Bill Gates donates to charity because of tax writeoffs. Not many people hate Bill Gates, though, they just hate Microsoft.

Who are you to judge his motives?? So many people 'hate' the rich (I'm not saying you do, but people tend to assume the worst about the rich) and decry their motives as always selfish, but many rich people do great things with their money. How do you know that Bill Gates doesn't just like donating to charity because he wants to help?? I'm not saying I know his motives are good, just that you absolutely do not know they are selfish.

I've known a few multi-millionaires, and they have been the most genuine, nice, generous people I've ever dealt with. That's not to say they're all that way, but many are.

On the other hand, I've known many 'poor' people who were simply lazy, mean, selfish, and always looking for a handout like other people owed them something. Again, that's not to say all, or even most are like that, just that the stereotypes of rich vs poor are more born out of jealosy than anything else.

Edit: I'm referring to rich vs poor in the western world. Obviously, the rich vs poor in places like Africa and other 3rd world countries is a different story. Also, I do think we should help those less 'fortunate' (if they are willing to actually be helped) than ourselves. My point is that the prejudice against the 'evil rich' is just a silly as any other prejudice.
