I don't think I have ever taken up for Bill Gates, but the quote used by 
the journalist is so far out of context, it verges on heresy.

I promise that if "cloning" was an issue, then Microsoft has the market 
cornered. They have connectors for everything from Banyan Vines, Novell, 
Lotus Notes and so on. They ever had a way to use early versions of 
Excel like Lotus 1-2-3. Word had a WordPerfect key mapping function.
