For those who aren't familiar with this saga, Richard Stallman went on to found the Free Software Foundation about 10 years later and, in my opinion, has proven to Gates that you don't need to make software proprietary in order to make money.
Frankly, if I were choosing which of Richard Stallman and Bill Gates had demonstrated a more effective way to make money, I'd probably go the other way.
