Because more in one go you have thought about making disappear to Bill Gates and its Windows
Although we have thought all it at some time, mainly after some of the dirty tricks that Windows (in anyone of its versions) plays to us periodically, in fact nobody has happened to throw a cake to him to the face to the creator of the funny operating system of the windows. Nevertheless, something that much people do not know is that we can fit to the accounts to this famous pair man-program in the XBill game.

One animated game to the XBill in Gnome, under Linux
XBill is an funny game of open code that was very popular in years 90. In him, a called personage “Bill” tries to install “Wingdows “, a virus “intelligently designed to imitate a very popular operating system”, in computers like PCs with Linux and BSD, SPARCstations with Solaris, stations SGI IRIX, Macs Apple, Palm Pilots and NeXTcubes.
Using the mouse we will be able “to squash” to Bill and to give back the original operating system to these equipment. At the end of the game we will gain points by each computer that conserves its operating system. In advanced levels the computers are connected in local network, which causes that Windows can extend more express. Some machines can even catch fire, which we will have to solve throwing to them raises water buckets.
XBill, originally written for X-Windows, behaved to many other systems: OS X, NextStep, Wingdows (twice), BeOS, Java, iPAQ (linux-arm), AmigaOS4.0 and as it could not less be. PalmOS (unballastable in PalmGear).

Playing PBill, XBill for the Palm
Like curiosity, to comment that one of the creators of XBill is the Chilean Matías Duarte, who according to I read in FayerWayer years later would design the famous telephone móvil/PDA SideKick, also known like Danger Hiptop, that so many times we have seen in the films.

In order to finish, simply to make clear that the tone of this post is humoristic, nobody by very badly operating system that has created deserves they print that it like a fly, and Bill Gates deserves all our respect, since it is necessary much ability, luck, dedication, luck, vision and luck to arrive at where it has arrived.

I played that some years ago. and good, long ago that nonuse Windows and stranger a little the diversion of crackear programs, in linux not can.
The telephone rather seems a UMPC. sometimes I would like that my palm had a keyboard thus.
Bill arrived at which is not by as much luck, but for being reverendísimo HDP, just makes lack see Pirates of Valley Silicone or read one of so many anecdotes, the type is the typical corporative player taken to the end, jodió to very many people in the way… and for that reason yes that gives desire of not consuming anything that it comes from his company.
Now to hate it so that Windows walks bad… in short, everything UNDER has its problems. resetea me 100 times plus my Palm TX that my machines with Windows or Linux.
And I also played the jueguito that, am more, must have been one of the first programs that I ran the first times that I installed Linux
Wow that fantastic game! I am going to install to take it to me it of vacations… Greetings.
I agree with the previous commentary. BILL GATES is a HDP because I arrive by force of ugly strategies and not by ability nor own intelligence.
It extremely seems unjust to me that this man has become the rich man but of the world when all the merit in fact deberia to be of MAC and not of Microsoft. The only thing that profit is to make monopoly and that people this way are not free to choose a good operating system like the one of MAC because this HDP always finishes obligandote to install their excrement Windows in your machine.
Greetings

IT HOLDS THAT JUEGUITO AND DENLE SO THAT IT HAS TO BILL
The world of the businesses is thus, he is not the one that has the best product or the best intentions the one than wins, but most capable dominating itself the others, by the means that are. Pure and hard Capitalism we can see, it every day…
By the way very complete the Web on the Chévrolet Camaro
By the way… The game works on palm TX? The device is hung to me whenever I want to initiate the game.
He is right that the Vile Gates is the richest man of the world. Since only somebody very very ready can arrive at that throne. What he is not right is that they give to the prize Prince him of Asturias to most generous, that yes that is not just.
