Poor Bill Gates

Here's the Technowizard himself at the International Consumer Electronics Show.
During a demonstration of digital photography with a soon-to-be-released Nikon camera, a Windows Media Center PC froze and wouldn't respond to Gates' pushing of the remote control.

Later in the 90-minute presentation, a product manager demonstrated the ostensible user-friendliness of a video game expected to hit retail stores in April, Forza Motor Sport. But instead of configuring a custom-designed race car, the computer monitor displayed the dreaded "blue screen of death" and warned, "out of system memory."
That is just too funny. You know, I've never seen anything like that happen when Job's gives an Mac talk. And Gates has got a new iPod wannabe called, "iRiver." What kind of name is that? Nice try, Bill.
