I decided to collect a few clips around the web and post them here. As you know, Bill is retiring from MS and this will be his last appearance at 2008 CES. (so we think)

Bills Last Full Day at Microsoft

Bill - The Difference between Apple & Microsoft

Bill Gates: Innovator, Deal-Maker, Philanthropist

I saw that first video earlier today and loved it. Very funny stuff.

That was great Dave!!

So Bill is looking for another job, eh?

Hey- why don't you make him a moderator and tell him if he does a good job maybe he could be an Admin?

I went to CES a few years ago and saw his keynote speech. He mostly just talked about SPOT watches. I stood in line for over five hours to hear him talk about watches. I haven't heard a thing about them since then.

This keynote looks like it was a bit more entertaining at least.

Actually I really admire the guy. he really is humble

I really do admire his ingenuity, after seeing the movie, aptly named I might add, Pirates of Silicone valley, I do admire some aspects of his career.

Respect. Bill is the god of computers in my book. Just look what he did for them. Opportunist, inventor...what ever you want to call him, he gave big blue the shaft and started the revolution! He is the reason we all have these great computers everywhere. Anyone seen the outdated "Triumph of the Nerds"? I watched it for the first time last semester in one of my MIS classes.
