Bill Gates Keynote at International CES


Recommended Posts

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 :-)

Night

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!

LOL. So true!

    • But we are talking about Elon Musk, no AT&T... I know big companies are evil, but Elon and his companies are in another level which is much more dangerous.
    • New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues by Taras Buria Another bug-fixing update is available for PowerToys version 0.100. After releasing version 0.100.1 with a bunch of bug fixes and patches, Microsoft pushed version 0.100.2 to address two important issues with one of Command Palette Dock's features. With PowerToys 0.100.2, Microsoft fixed the performance meter displaying incorrect values and memory leaks, which are particularly unwanted things in the current situation with overpriced PC hardware. Here is the changelog: Reverted a Performance Monitor dock refresh change that forced item refreshes on every metric update Fixed a memory leak in the Performance Monitor dock extension by reusing stable network upload/download band items instead of creating new list items on each refresh For those unfamiliar, Command Palette Dock is a relatively new addition to PowerToys. It is a taskbar-like tool that you can keep on top of the screen to pin various useful widgets, commands, and more. It can display time, weather, your PC's performance metrics, and more. Microsoft introduced the Command Palette Dock in March 2026 in PowerToys 0.98. Microsoft has dedicated documentation for Command Palette Dock, and you can check it out on the official Microsoft Learn website. You can update PowerToys to the latest version by going to Settings > General and clicking "Check for updates." Alternatively, you can download the installer from GitHub using this link. In other news, Microsoft is working on a new window-management utility for PowerToys. Called Alt Window Cycle, it will let you use the Alt + ` shortcut to switch between different windows in a single app. You can learn more about the tool here.
    • You did take leaf out of Trumps book already and had brexit - only to harm yourself. The same goes with this AI nonsense. The obvious solution for these companies is to move their head office to Brussels. I can see quite much irony there... 🙂
    • Thank gawd AT&T never worked with the US gov....
    • Wonder if they are trying to slow down Linux traction (not saying this is the only factor) in the consumer space. With the most pressure probably being steam deck/box, etc.
