The chances of Sheldon saying something dumb again -- he suggested that Gates's focus on philanthrophy was the reason Vista had problems -- seem extremely high.
The Big Bang Theoryhas hosted a number of geeky heroes over the years, including Stars Trekand Warsfavorites LeVar Burton and Carrie Fisher, scientists Stephen Hawking and Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. So Gates is in good company.
