Bill Gates: Live at Microsoft's Digital Entertainment Anywhere Event
Engadget publisher/baby daddy Jason Calacanis hit Microsoft's Digital Entertainment Anywhere event in Los Angeles
this afternoon and recorded this MP3 of Bill Gates' keynote address for us. He introduces all the new stuff, like
Plays For Sure,
Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005,
Windows
Media Extender, and Windows Media Center Extender for Xbox. And yes, that is Bill G. up on stage with Queen
Latifah. We saw Bringing Down the House, so we know what that's all about.
Listen (MP3)

Bill looks like he could be Latifah's infant child, sizewise.
Wendell @ Dec 19th 2005 12:05AM
He is just a teeny little white man...and I do mean teeny and white.
Greg @ Dec 19th 2005 12:05AM
Does anyone know if I could get away with putting my content on a samba share, or will it REALLY look for a Windows box?
Thomas Hawk @ Dec 19th 2005 12:05AM
Great coverage from you and Engadget on the Media Center launch Peter. You guys did such a better job than Gizmodo on it. Didn't I read something back a ways about you guys passing them in page views? No wonder. Great coverage on your part and the mp3's a great touch.

But he's not below average height. I've stood within two feet of him before and he's taller than I am. About 5'9" or taller.

ILB size in my book

Wow--Bill Gates is a prominent digital distribution ally for the independent artist
community. Reaching the grass-roots is a key
element for cultural inclusion in the digital
convergence industry; this scenario will inevitably contribute to its overall growth
twice as fast. "Sound of Literati" witness the
powerful eXperience of the spoken word Xplosion
inside the 'Digital Media Mall': MSN,PureTracks
,BuyMusic,TransWorld f,y,e,MusicMatch and Napster to Go!

True, Pentium rocks, but AMD is the same. I have an AMD Athlon, it is 1.1GH.
Bill Gates is my idol. I am only 14 and deeply in love with computers. All the computers I have ever had(except my dad's, he ordered his from Dell because he is ignorant to technology) was homebuilt by me and assisted when i was younger at work by my mom's boss. Now I'm hacking into the computer system at my school and changing grades and adding dicipline marks and changing important principle documents.
Does anyone here happen to know Bill Gates' email address? I would greatly appreciate it if someone would tell me what it is.

Bill Gates will do anything to kill competition. Probably soon will try to sell something to replace also iPod.
BTW: I doubt that Bill will ever deliver MP3s to users. He prefers his format, WMA. Thus I wonder about the success of his new service.

Wouldn't it make more sense to promote Digital Home Entertainment Anywhere with a robotic PC?

Mr.Gates,
Would it be possible for you or one of your technicians to email me about adding a batch file to a start up file so that we can remove some of these games we have at Alice Springs High School, Australia. I was thinking about putting a link into a .exe so that it will start a bat file to remove games. sort of like a script. Is that even possible? I would greatly appreciate a response. Thank you for your time.

It is reported that Bill Gates receives about 4 million e-mails per day,
He is quoted as saying "If I got a nickel for every time...
Oh wait, I do!"
