We started class by looking at information about Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates. I then worked on an animated button that changes colors in flash. I watched the movie for the rest of the class. Bill Gates was the one in charge of Microsoft, but Paul was the technical genius. Steve Jobs was responsible for creating Apple and he was responsible for the technical aspect of his company as well. Based on the portrayals of the characters in the movie, I think Bill Gates was more ethical because though Bill Gates stole ideas from Apple, his faults and mistakes seem to be less than Steve’s. The fact that Steve did not acknowledge his daughter and the way he pitted his company against itself was horrible. Overall, both Steve and Bill were not the nicest of people in general; They both are unethical.
