You’ve all heard about Bill Gates and his huge success as a multi-Billionaire, but have you heard about the dark side of the force, err fence no err force.
It all started one day when Bill Gates was starting up his brand new PC.
Bill Gates booted up his new PC, when the pc finished booting up Bill decided to check his e-mails.
He was just going into Outlook Express (Microsoft of course) when his screen suddenly went black. “Argh blasted windows98, stupid thing froze again” but suddenly some writing came up, letter by letter; it said, “I’ve been watching you Bill……” Bill Gates looked at the screen in utter astonishment “What on earth?” he gawped at the screen, still shocked “You’ve been a bad boy” Bill’s face went from a look of astonishment to a look of horror. He started pressing escape over and over again, but to no avail. The writing continued; “Yes that’s right…..I know what you’ve kept secret for so long” Bill started to get nervous, looking around as if he expected to see somebody pouncing out from behind a corner. The weird writing went on; “You cannot hide from me Bill……..” Suddenly the computer crashed and the writing disappeared. By now Bill Gates was almost Hysterical.
He almost ran down the hall to the nearest phone.
He picked up the phone and called Microsoft Headquarters. “Hello?… Get me my Head Production Manager” A voce at the other end said “Just a moment” A deep voice spoke from the other end “Hello” Bill spoke back “I want all versions of windows 98 recalled, We’ve got a hacker on the system…” The voice at the other end spoke in a puzzled voice “Woah…Slow down Bill, You sound like you’ve just seen a ghost. Now slowly tell me what’s wrong ”Bill tried to speak back in a calm voice but couldn’t “I was going into Outlook express when the screen went black……Some weird writing came up and said a load of freaky things.. I um.. Don’t know what to make of it” Th production Manger spoke back. Still in a calm voice “I don’t think there’s any need for you to recall all copies of Windows98 It sounds like somebody hacked into your PC. I wouldn’t worry about it” So Bill went back to his desk and sat down.
Still bemused Bill decided to go out for a cup of coffee. He sat down in the local coffee shop and began to mutter to himself “Have I gone insane?” he muttered to himself “I need to get a grip of myself” He finished his coffee and went back to his office in a huff.
He sat down at his desk and started up his pc and continued with his work.
The rest of the day went normally, writing documents thinking of ideas for new software programmes and so on.
It was about 5:30 when Bill decided he would go home.
So off he went back to his home.
When he got home he sat down and let out a sigh.
He was just about to make himself his dinner when there was a knock at the door.
He went to answer the door. “Hello can I help you?” said bill “Yes I want to show you some new software” Ok said Bill “Come on in”
So a minute or so later they were both sitting on the sofa.
“Have I met you before?” Asked Bill “Yes we have” “I don’t quite know how to break this to you but I’m your 3rd cousin” “Huh what?” said Bill, “Oh err….um ok so what’s this software you want to show me?” said bill “Oh my names Bill By the way, Bill Fence” said Bill “Oh My names Bill Gates” replied Bill
Bill Fence took out a laptop and started it up. When the laptop started up there was a sound like a set of old doors opening. “Ok now it’s a new operating system called Doors,” said Bills cousin “Wait a minute” said Bill Gates “Isn’t this a windows rip off?”
“Let me show it to you before you fly of your handle” said Bill’s cousin.
The man faced the laptop in Bill’s direction.
Bill looked at the screen and saw the desktop.
Where windows would be on Windows applications windows was crossed out and underneath it was the word DOORS. The desktop image showed two open doors as if it would seem you walked onto the desktop through a set of doors.
Where start should be in it’s place was an icon in the shape of a Keyhole It said; “Keyhole”
All the usual elements of a start menu were there but instead of Shut down there was an icon which displayed a set of closed doors and a word which said; Close Doors.
Bill clicked on it and there was a slam, like a set of doors closing.
“I’ve also started up my own company, it’s called Microgeeks” said Bill’s cousin “Hey wait a minute this is a Microsoft rip of” said Bill “I’ve also created a games console, I’ve called it the Micro geek Snot Box” By now Bill Gate’s face was getting redder and redder by the moment. “OUT…….OUT…………..OUUUUUUUTTTTTTTT” Screamed Bill.
Bill shoved the man out of his house. But just before Bill slammed the door the man yelled “You know I’ll beat you Bill…I’ll ruin you” The door slammed shut.
Bill stormed back into the living room and began smashing vases and ornaments “Arggghhhhhhhh” He screamed “I can’t do it anymore” With a burst of Anger he threw the TV out the window, unfortunately it Landed on the big boss man of Rare ware whom Bill just did a deal with. The man got up and looked towards the window and saw Bill gawping out the window “What do you think you’re doing? The deals of!” with that the man stormed of and Bill was left hitting his head of the windowsill over and over again.
“Damn Bill Fence..damn him. He’ll ruin me,” said Bill.
Bill climbed outside onto the window ledge. There were people watching him 4 stories below “Isn’t that Bill Gates?” said one person “I think he’s going to jump” said another.
Suddenly Bill Gates yelled out “Damn Bill Fence” with that he leapt of the window ledge to his grim death below.
Well there you have it.
The story of how Bill Fence Ripped of Microsoft and brought the end of Bill Gate’s life.
How very sad!
