I am not sure how many times I have seen this video, I love it, I love this man, I love his speech and I truly can't get enough of it... sometimes I have some doubts and there is few things that can clear them out for me, this video might be one of them ... I just watched it again, and I am pumped

He's obviously much worse at orating, but he seems sincere and his speech is pretty inspirational.

Although his voice... reminds me of a slightly lower pitched Mickey Mouse.

On the contrary, having actually seen Steve in action I have come to believe he's the megalomaniac dickhead. Bill Gates has now gotten old and to the point where he isn't too concerned about tinkering with phones and computers and sees that as being secondary to solving real problems on this world.

What's really interesting though is how both men being college dropouts (although for Steve that's a bit generous) and here they are, old and experienced, explaining how the problems (for Steve being creativity and Bill diseases) isn't so much something that can be solved by the collective brain power in college. It requires people to just make an effort and try.

"Bill Gates has now gotten old and to the point where he isn't too concerned about tinkering with phones and computers and sees that as being secondary to solving real problems on this world."

This is bizarre in the extreme. The reason Bill Gates has the money to deal with "real world problems" is because his company created something valuable that increased people's productivity. Could he have started his foundation without creating a Microsoft?

In general, the road to solving what you call real world problems takes you straight through solving more mundane problems like getting iron out of the ground and figuring out a more efficient process for managing inventory.

I was trying to draw parallels about how after achieving great amount of money and success in both man, Gates is no longer too interested in running his company or product development and rather wants to focus on humanitarian causes. His speech was to focus on that, to convince those that are in power, privileged, and in a position to help, to really go out and help. Gates has grown from worrying and fretting about his company to do other things while Steve is still driven to make computers and won't stop until he's dead.
