Re Vista, Bill does address Windows, specifically. The context for this conversation is the future and Vista is here now... He explains how he thinks Windows will remain pertinent in an increasingly Internet-connected world of servers and services that provide data for any device. I thought his answer was spot on: Windows will drive service innovation and provide the mechanisms for truly rich user experiences that consume from the cloud.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />C</p>http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/Charles/Bill-Gates-Transitioning-into-the-Future/?CommentID=411863Wed, 25 Jun 2008 18:07:25 GMThttp://channel9.msdn.com/posts/Charles/Bill-Gates-Transitioning-into-the-Future/?CommentID=4118630http://channel9.msdn.com/411863/WebViewBug.aspx?EVT=0Glad you like dit!
