hehe. careful now. u know he's saying that because Longhorn is supposed to have hardware standards like a mac. he wants more of that fancy-case, 3d-windows-effect share.
but when Billy G is talking about hardware standards, he's not talking about just trusted hardware... read about the damn video limitations, and what not?
if you don't have "qualified" hardware, you'll get degraded video and perhaps sound because it's not trusted... bleh.
don't you see this is a very old video? i don't think bill knew what longhorn was at that time (unless he's gay...ughhhh) :P
that video is soo old, look at those glasses and his hair.Quote:

He probably thought he had a chance of buying them out :rolleyes:
Why does he sound like Kermit the frog?
Because at the time that movie was made, he did the voiceovers for Kermit the Frog to pay his way through college.Quote:

So he didn't do the voiceover for Kermit The Frog?Quote:

I wanted to steal the TV set! - Bill Gates' response after Steve Jobs accused Microsoft of borrowing the GUI from Apple for Windows 1.0"
why would he steal a tv from xerox?

They sold that about 6 months later. MS isn't owning any Apple shares anymore (at least nothing big).
