The One And Many

Bill Gates no longer Nr 1 richest man.

 I actually heard this on the radio this morning thinking that maybe this again will take off the heat towards Microsoft. I know a lot of people cannot stand the fact that Billg made some good business decisions and earned himself that spot. Again The Register shows that sign of jealousy.

"If you think about it, Microsoft and IKEA are not terribly dissimilar. Both companies sell mass-produced gear that requires a lot of assembly and attention."

This is bullshit. Microsoft has unit costs of almost zero and a very huge initial investment to make (huge barrier of entrance for competitors). IKEA is about minimizing cost per unit and brand value. The two couldn't be more different. Microsoft is trying to get premium profits, IKEA is a cost leader.
