It is indeed interesting to look back at this two years later. Two of us from this session were invited back a year later (Molly and myself) and I asked Mr. Gates what having children has meant to him and what legacy he wishes to leave behind for them. He became very practical and talked about the fact that he had always dropped them off at school each morning. But after July 2008 he would be able to pick them up as well. I was able to play with the ‘surface’ and it is just ironic (is there a better word?’ that Microsoft reached some major interface and innovation goals through the development of the Surface Table. But no one has been able to play with or use it … so Apple once again takes the charge in ‘gesture-based’ interfaces. See my post ‘Microsoft to MacWorld’ which was my last post until today.

Very interesting. Especially in light of looking at it two years later, and seeing where Bill Gates is now. Just a week ago I heard the announcement that he is finally leaving Microsoft to work more closely with charity and development projects. Kudos to Bill for doing the right thing, if you ask me. I’m really impressed with his attitude. I wonder why you weren’t allowed to take pictures once he arrived at this conference? That’s weird. Maybe he just doesn’t like being in the limelight and having his pics thrown all over the net… probably ever since that ‘pie’ incident (snicker…)

I can’t imagine Mr. Gates not havin everything he wants already. But, good for him…he deserves it I guess.
