Did anyone else think something actually hit the board?

Bill has to put up his Grandma.. aww....

Sorry but this seems way too conceptish

concepts are how things begin... without making a concept things will never get off the ground. besides, don't expect these inventions to be inside your hours.. Bill just put a lot of ideas into peoples head right now, and maybe an in kitchen LCD monitor with voice recognition maybe in our kitchens in the near future... who knows right?

Holy crap, that digital home stuff was wicked! Especially the bus stop thing.

I did actually like that idea. That would be very useful to many people.

What made me laugh about it was Bill gates talking about the coupons.

zOMG...I can save 50 cents to add to my bank account of $68,435,234,295.50

jolly giood show !

Few final comments

Truly exciting and inspiring to see what products are on their way into our homes - the 360 with its HDMI and it's IPtv has in my eyes just buried the PS3 - but i dont care about that i'm a pc gamer. Live anywhere really excites me and i look forward to playing some of you lot at halo 2 on my pc over live.

The car stuff was a bit dull and lifeless but the connected experiences was very interesting and I truly believe that as long as the Zune is learned from and built upon - its sucessor will be a strong contender for the portable media title.

And lastly, how cool was that house of the future. Ever since i was a little kid that stuff fascinated me and its always exciting to see what products are possible in the future :-)

Bill's grandma is still alive? How old is she? 534 years old?

Imagine if someone hacked into the bus stop displays and played a porno... LOL

Why does Ford have to be the only partner for the Auto thing

No other car company is that desperate I guess.

One other thing, does anyone know of anything else at CES worth watching? A webcast...and does anyone know if there will be the cast that did last year (forgotten the dudes name, but some American TV host/comedian that did a cast with Bill, I thought it was a classic!

    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility

      By matthiew · Posted

      When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!

    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates

      By matthiew · Posted

      I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      By qbrick · Posted

      Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
    • Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge

      By matthiew · Posted

      Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
