Homer Simpson and Bill Gates buy out
Michael Gibbons
A one-minute clip from The Simpsons in which Homer is bought out by Bill Gates. It is a short cartoon scene that parodies Gates and Microsoft.
HN mostly uses it as a joke or a reference point when discussing buyouts, Gates's competitiveness, or Microsoft's public image in the 1990s.
