Reporter fabricates interview with Gates

A Norwegian tech reporter fabricated an interview with Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates, according to the software maker. The interview was printed in the Norwegian magazine "Mann" and reportedly took place during a commercial plane flight in Europe earlier this year. There's just one problem. "It's totally fake," a Microsoft spokesperson said. In the interview, Gates supposedly talks about the European Union (EU) antitrust case, his cluelessness about cash, and competitors such as Google. Microsoft says it wants an apology. Meanwhile, I'm crafting my first-ever interview with Gates, in which the software titan bequeaths me $1 billion so I can retire. You read it here first.
