Bill Gates and Idlis!!! ??

The media call him the Big B of the IT world, is here again. I am talking of the person who had a dream of seeing a pc on everyones table so that he could make them pay to make sure they use that desktop gadget. Bill Gates.

Now why is it that he is put on top of every other news. Why is his visit blown out of proportion? Would Richard Stallman or Linus Torvalds receive the same kinda out of blown media coverage if they ever visit India. Ah, they would never be invited even. Leading papers give a whole transact of his chat with the FM of the country and the news channels have started live show with commentary of his each and every steps and moves. Would the finance minister share idlis with people like Stallman ???
