[SC.LUG] Bill Gates to be Knighted?

[Jason Lucas]

According to the Telegraph
(http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2004/01/25/ngates25.xml&sSheet=/news/2004/01/25/ixnewstop.html)
(& reported on slashdot), Bill Gates is apparently due for a Knighthood.
Presumably this will be part of the terms and conditions for Newham
Council's budget M$ deal that displaced Linux as a contender for the
Council's desktop environment. If other councils follow suit, does that
mean that Gates will be made next in-line for the throne?

Can you image it - Long Live King Bill Gates III!
