This would really cramp my style. Just another reason I think Bill Gates is probably the devil. This could really cramp my style! To paraphrase, he wants you to have to buy a stamp for every single email you send. Just like regular mail, only less expensive of course.
Did I meantion I use MACINTOSH!!!?
Gates Proposes stamps for Email
wow.
LOL!! I hope it never happens. If it does...I`ll...I`ll--boycott e-mail!!!!! :eek:
...he thinks to himself, "I only have 100 billion dollars. How to make more money without looking like greedy so-and-so. Think, Gatesy, think! Aha! Now I got it ..."
:rolleyes:
Bill Gates.. another crazy man with a lot of $.. ugh..
Riiiiiight...It'll never work. :)
Good Grief what next, yep the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, I hope it is only a rumour and never happens, as that will indeed cramp my style.
Greedy #@$%&^*.
AND alot of time on his hands!!! Jerk! :mad: :mad:Quote:

Probably virtual ! :rolleyes:
through my internet service provider. i do not think i should have to pay again to be protected from spammers. put them out of business instead of bothering me. bill gates, fix it from the crooks end, don't misuse me.
I don't know that they can ever make this happen, but from what I understand the proposal would give you a certain number of "freebies", then you would pay 1 cent per email. It is not pointed at "us", the consumer, it is pointed at those huge mass mailers who flood our inboxes constantly.
Hate to pour water all over this and have a different opinion, but I would be glad to pay 1 cent to stop getting all the crap in my email!! :)
Me on the other side of the coin. I run a Play By Email Club and this would hurt my members, most of which are young and I can see their parents forcing them to quit so they could save money.
I also do a lot of emailing in my rescue groups and for me, those pennies would add up. I'm no millionaire like Gates.
I REALLY hope it doesn't happen.
i don't want that to happen! i really don't mind the spam, it all goes in to my bulk folder and i delete it. that all there is to it. and who would be getting all these pennies? little billy? sure....thats convientient (sp?)
