It's Bill Gates' mugshot. Don't know why he's wearing it though.

I was curious about this as well and I also thought it had to be a part of some ad campaign. Didn't know it was Gates, thought it was kinda cool lol. If anyone knows more please post, good thread!

You would think it has to be something important or he is getting paid by someone to wear it, otherwise he is giving up a lot of sponsorship money.

I think one of the comments on that site makes some sense, it could have been to represent the fact that any young guy can make something of himself.

Agreed. Don't think it's an ad for MS as someone suggested, it would have been the worst campaign ever.

I'm re-watching this, it's a mug-shot of Bill Gates. Side view, then front, like when you get your pic taken going to jail.

I assume it's some political statement on BIll Gates being a crook since he runs a monopoly and all.

APD? Albuquerque Police Dept

Business is business. He just managed to end up at the top of all the operating system developers. And it's not as if other programs aren't out there. Normal people are just happy working with what they buy and never even consider Apple or others.

Lets also not discount that Bill Gates and his wife have donated more money to charity than any other individual in the history of the world. Only the United States government gives more money to the needy. To me, that makes up for whatever questionable business tactics Gates may have used in past.

No I agree, but I just think that's what Rashad is trying to say.

I don't see why else you'd have Gates on a mug-shot since he's never been accused of anything else criminally except a monopoly which technically isnt illegal, but is sorta illegal.

Rashad was tasked with downloading the new version of Vista for fighters, unfortunately some older, slower running fighters, Chuck, crashed when he unloaded it on them.

The Mug shot looks like the picture in B Gates id for this new ad campaign. Check it.

Rashad had a choice between a Bill Gates mugshot shirt and a " MEAN 1" shirt. Keith Jardine didn't get the memo.
