La historia es así: Jon compró una Xbox 360 como cualquier Gamer, se imaginaba que duraría horas y horas jugando con su nueva consola…Pero realmente todo fue lo contrario, su Xbox solo llegó con defectos y defectos, Jon molesto por los problemas de fabrica de su Xbox, empezó a llamar a las habituales líneas de atención al cliente, pero sin hallar ningún tipo de resultado… cansado de no encontrar respuesta, Jon le escribió un e-mail a Kathleen Hogan, (Vicepresidente Corporativo servicio de atención al cliente en todo el mundo), donde le decía al mismísimo Bill Gates, que su magnifica Xbox 360 no servía para nada… que solo ha tenido problemas desde que la adquirió.¿El resultado? Bill le envió una nueva Xbox 360, con una gran variedad de juegos y dispositivos totalmente gratis.Ya sabemos que Gates comprueba su correo electrónico de vez en cuando, ¿será que si le escribo a Bill diciéndole que cuando compré Windows Vista, solo me trajo muchos problema en cuanto
I tried to leave this as a comment in response to this post from Prof. Marcus, but it was too long, so…__First, it sounds like these unindicted criminals want to get into what used to be and may still be called “human factors engineering” in the defense consulting ‘biz; that was once my world in another lifetime. And, being Microsoft, they intend to utterly dominate the market and squash all competition, bringing them under heel to lick the refuse from their boots.Second, I’ve been meaning to post forever about my horror story with these bastards. For reasons that were utterly cosmic in their stupidity and which I will probably never understand, I upgraded to Internet Explorer 7 on a whim near the end of last summer from IE 6.The first thing that went wrong was the sudden inability of my anti-virus program to go get daily updates, and my spyware program didn’t work properly either (both AVG, good products, and both free – I had to buy the spyware program to fix one issue)
Tras 2 años de traspaso de funciones, Bill Gates cederá finalmente (a fines de julio de 2008) su puesto a Ray Ozzie, quien desempeñará labores de director de software y de productos, y Craig Mundie, que asumirá el nuevo cargo de responsable de investigación y estrategia de la compañía.Gates continuará como presidente de honor, así como consejero o asesor en cuestiones o proyectos estratégicos.Para entonces, Bill Gates seguirá vinculado a la empresa como presidente de honor y consejero en temas estratégicos, pero ya no se ocupará de las cuestiones del día a día, lo que le permitirá dedicarse a la filantropía y las labores humanitarias.En este video se muestra con sentido del humor como seriá su vida a partir de su último dia de trabajo en Microsoft.
Another CES begins and another keynote by the world’s second richest man, the Sultan of Software empire Microsoft. And yet, every year his speeches become more and more boring. Nothing against Bill Gates personally, after all he is brilliant, but it becomes more apparent everyday that Microsoft is failing to innovate at the same pace [...]
Reminder: Bill Gates' CES keynote happens tonightFiled under: NewsJust a reminder fellow fanboys that you (yes you!) will be able to watch a live broadcast of Bill Gates' 2008 CES keynote tonight at 9:30PM eastern (6:30PM pacific). Tonight we may hear about the rumored Ultimate Xbox 360, maybe some new Marketplace partnerships or even learn that Microsoft will start offering a Blu-ray player peripheral (don't bank on that one). No matter what is announced, we'll get some Xbox 360 news and a first glimpse of what is planned for the 360 in 2008. To watch, simply make your way over to the Microsoft at CES website for a live feed of the keynote and be sure to have either Windows Media Player or Silverlight to watch (insert sad face for non-Microsoft fanboys). Gates walks on stage at 9:30PM eastern tonight, get pumped and watch live! Dahhh!

A partir de julio próximo se dedicará exclusivamente a su labor filantrópica al frente de la Fundación Bill y Melinda Gates----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Las Vegas (DPA) .- Bill Gates acudió en 1983 a su primera presentación en la gran feria tecnológica de Las Vegas acompañado por su padre. El señor William H. Gates se ocupó en esa ocasión de cambiar las diapositivas que ilustraban el discurso con el que su hijo presentaba la primera versión de Windows. Entonces no se había inventado aún ningún programa de presentaciones, como PowerPoint, ni existían los proyectores conectados directamente a la PC.Casi un cuarto de siglo más tarde, el fundador de Microsoft acudirá a la edición de este año de Comdex por última vez: el multimillonario renunciará los próximos meses a la dirección de Microsoft para dedicarse de forma exclusiva a su trabajo como filántropo en la Fundación Bill y Melinda Gates.La atenci

Bill gates has dropped to the second richest man in the world, which is really well, ok, he is no longer the richest man in the world but he has more spending cash than we do. And we doubt that anyone is going to really have a major fit over the whoel thing.
We are also dead positive that somewhere along the line, Mini-Microsoft is going to have a field day with this one and talk about the Microsoft stock flat line as a culprit as well. But Bill G is not stupid, he diversified long ago.
Mexican telecommunications tycoon Carlos Slim has taken the crown with a net worth of $67.8 billion, according to estimates by a respected financial news site in Mexico, as reported by multiple news services. Source: Seattle PI
Got to hand it to anyone who has a 27% surge in their companies stock price, and this ought to make a lot of investors take a look south of the boarder to see what kind of good things can be picked up in Mexico and in Latin/South America as good ways to make some quick cash.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates finally has his Harvard degree, 30 years after he dropped out of the prestigious university to enter the software business and become the world's richest man. Gates was originally slated to graduate in 1977, but didn't, until this Friday, when Harvard University Provost Steven Hyman bestowed an honorary law degree on him. Gates, who runs a $60 billion philanthropic endowment now, urged his fellow graduates to use their education to fight poverty around the world. He dropped out of Harvard and co-founded Microsoft Corp. to become the world's richest person. "We recognize the most illustrious member of the Harvard College class of 1977 never to have graduated from Harvard," Harvard University Provost Steven Hyman was quoted by news agency Reuters as saying. Meanwhile, Gates thanked his alma mater for honouring his success. "I've been waiting for more than 30 years to say this, 'Dad, I always told you I'd come back and get my degree'," Gates,

Link for this Post: Bill Gates and Steve Jobs to Make Historic Joint Appearance At the Fifth Annual 'D: All Things Digital Conference.
I first saw Steve Jobs speak at a conference in Santa Cruz back in the early 1980s, right after the launch of the Mac.
I have the 1999 movie, Pirates of Silicon Valley in my DVD collection. The film is about the legendary battle between Jobs and Gates which is an essential part of the history of the personal computer.
So I was intrigued by this story which I found on Primzone via TechMeme.
NEW YORK, Feb. 20, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) (PRIMEZONE) -- Apple, Inc. CEO Steve Jobs and Microsoft Corp. Chairman Bill Gates, the seminal figures in the development of the personal computer, will make a rare joint appearance at The Wall Street Journal's "D: All Things Digital" conference this year. The two men will jointly discuss the history and future of the digital revolution in an unrehearsed, unscripted, onstage conversation on May 30 with D co-
