Looking at you.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791)
Although not a scientist, his music is beyond what most humans can imagine.

(j/k I'm actually a windows fan)
I'm stuck between Albert Einstein, Aristotle, and Leonardo DaVinci.

Well I read that the most intelligent Famous Person ever was John Stuart Mill..second would be Goethe......
Those are surely smart people...outstanding on their fields...but not the most intelligent....

Bill Gates, who else could take some software a friend made on a single disk into a multi billion dollar company that rules 80% of the computer world... I mean its brilliant.
Actually of all these people I wouldn't know who to vote for all had their things, For some reason i'm thinking of Da Vinci, I mean he was a brilliant painter and a brilliant scientist. But if he was trully more intelligent then the rest? I don't think you can say.

I'd say Newton
If any of you have had any physics, you know how much he has meant for science. I'm dazzeled over how many thing that chap managed to explain/understand.
If I had to chose from that list, I'd say he was the most "valuable" to mankind...

Aristotle was a philosoher who connected scientific theory to religon. To him, virtueous actions weren't just an ideal, they were logical conclusions.. Aristotle believed that inorder to function down to the very last atom, one had to think like, search for, and become one with God..
And that's why SpellJammer is voting for him.
