The Telegraph's Mary Riddell has a piece on Gates. It's worth a read. He has a balanced and realistic view of things and comes across as very humane. Some quotes:
“Philanthropy should be voluntary...[no one is going to give their wealth] because someone scolded them or they heard Bill Gates say something mean."
"Steve [Jobs] was an incredible genius who contributed immensely to the field I was in....I got a fair bit of time with him in his last year....We spent literally hours reminiscing and talking about the future....There was no peace to make. We were not at war....There was no cause for forgiveness."
