No offence right, but "Contribution to Enterprise"? Contributions such as
- Locking out competitors
- Making a "user friendly" version of windows which actually means "you'll use it the way MS wants you to"
- Charging a fortune for products when others can do it for cheaper
you know, the list goes on but very few merit a Knighthood. Makes me ashamed to be British sometimes it really does.

What I don't understand is why our queen is knighting him when he probably didn't even think about britain when he was thinking up Windows.

I don't see why you are dissing him. I would bet that most people here don't use DOS or something other than windows for an operating system. I say if it simplifies things, more power to it.
Anyways, I MEAN WTF WAS THE QUEEN THINKING? Maybe a little under the table action going on around there

Yeah you can be a non-British Knight - you just are "honoury" (correct spelling escapes me).

King Arthur would be spinning in his grave.... They should re-establish the criteria of having to vanquish a dragon to make you eligible for knighthood....
