But from what I know, can we agree that Louis Rossmann is one of the best (or the one?) ?
(yeah they don't play in the same category...)

Mixing a quote from the social network with my blabbering "You know what's better than 1 billion thousand trillions? Having a brain". Suckerberg, Ellon Musk, don't have, but by the 2 articles I've read about Gaven, it seems he does.
As long as I can keep my steam games or keep using BitTorrent, let them play.
For some people, it's not just about being proud of a successful business and having all the money you'll ever want... money is POWER. I don't think he's one of those people (by the way the company has been run)

It also kind of reminds me of Microsoft talking to every hardware manufacturer that considered dual-booting Haiku and telling them that Haiku adding a "Boot into Haiku" button to the Start menu was a violation of the license, convincing them not to do it. I guess it reminds me of Microsoft discovering Apple's Quicktime and then creating Video For Windows using the same copyrighted code and somehow infringing on patents (?).
Yeah, I've been looking into history lately.
Any takers as to what would be the first order of business if Microsoft was at the helm of Valve..?
Bingo, that's my point
So if they can they will they recently made DOS open source ( https://github.com/microsoft/MS-DOS ) , which means they confirmed that they wont make another 5 cents out of it.
Valve is one of the last pillars thats not controlled so obvious they want it, Nintendo is japanese, im not so sure they want to be owned by joe-land.
Question remains here : now the word is out id like to see official confirmation before i buy another game. I dont have a windows install since months anymore and i havent missed it once, if this were to happen i might even considering selling off the account.

Gabe seems like a wise man, so hopefully he chooses the right person.

I'm not a Steam user. I have tried it a few times but it's not for me. If MS bought Valve or not piracy is just the best option unless the DEVs have a DRM-Free copy on GOG, itch.io or directly from the dev itself.
