It may be worth something to Bill Gates, aka the richest MOFO around. He would probably have a good chuckle over it. But no, not worth anything. Hyphen and info and someone elses name kills it...deader than roadkill.

Bill has no intention of going after his name he has been well quoted for billgates.com which he doesn't own.

Bill Gates stance on domains in 1998

A broker of Internet domain names lists "billgates.com" for sale for $1 million. I'm told the name, an Internet address, has been advertised for months but remains unsold.

"Perhaps I should be flattered that somebody imagines the name is worth so much, especially since my parents gave me the same name 42 years ago for free."


Anyways the name is garbage. Nothing.

He should still have his domain in .com, for sheer purpose of providing accurate information and media to people looking for info on him and microsoft, it's a DISSERVICE to himself to not own it, and I'm very very very very sure he could have bought it for waaaay less money if he decided to go for it. This .info however is not worth reg fee my friend, sorry...
