Bill & Steve: Best Friends Forever - Forbes.com

It's amusing, in a pitiful sort of way, to see the mainstream press disappointment about the fact that the joint Gates/Jobs interview didn't turn into a fight 

One can only hope that they were kidding and this was not the valedictory moment it seemed. These guys make good things and thrive on competition. With luck, Jobs showed his continued interest in the game earlier in the day, when he indicated that Apple's iTunes was now on over 300 million computers worldwide, mostly Windows machines. That Apple (nasdaq: AAPL - news - people ) is one of the biggest external developers for Microsoft (nasdaq: MSFT - news - people ) is a boon, he said, since having his software in Microsoft products “is like giving a glass of water to somebody in Hell.”
