A demonstrator disrupted a presentation by Bill Gates at a Beijing university, holding up a sign advocating free and open source software. The Microsoft chairman had finished his speech and was handing out awards to a group of students. In the photo below Gates is standing between the award winners.

Reminds me of an October 2004 presentation by Gates in Berkeley, when during a question and answer session, a student asked his fellows for a show of hands of people who dislikes Microsoft. Nobody raised his hand and Gates responded calmly, asking if he had a question for him, and then moved on.
