Bill Says TV Is So Last Year
Just days before his Vista launch, Bill Gates told a European audience that
television
is still in the dark ages, and five years from now we won’t even recognize
it. The real revolution will come from the Internet, making the Gates speech
sound more like an ad for Steve Jobs’ new iTV. In Gates' world,
on-demand video from the Internet will make today's DVRs look like they
came from the Flintstones.
In fact, this was a key topic that Gates addressed when handling softball
question after softball question from the Daily Show's Jon Stewart
Monday night.
What do you love and hate about today's world of television? Let me
