Default Bill Gates Photos From MDC

http://clk.atdmt.com/goiframe/19982...67ddb/direct/01

MDC is in full swing, and as you can tell from the news today, Microsoft is making a lot of noise about what's going on at MDC. And what Microsoft event would be complete without a picture of the man himself, Bill Gates, holding up some geek gear?

(I just wish he'd personally use devices like this, then he'd hopefully see where they're flawed, and throw one of his fits and get some fixes moving...)

2200 Form Factor
256 MB RAM
96 MB ROM
VGA
BT/WiFi/CDMA (Sprint of course)
SDIO/CF
520 MHz Processor
Superduper graphics chip

Don't I wish

Seriously, I wonder if we will see any upgrades to the 2200 series? I kind of like them but the current spec is not too exciting.

"Okay, Mr. Gates - now hold this thing for 30 seconds...
good...
and now this one....that's right...."

Does William H. Gates III even use a PDA?

No he does not. That has been well publicized. At that level you don't need a personal digital assistant, because you have a personal assistant. Now, whether that individual, or staff of individuals, uses Pocket PCs? I dunno.

Just noticed that the title of this thread is "Bill Gates Photos", not "New Device Photos". :lol:

I was under the impression that the Pocket PC was not a profitable business for Microsoft?

Then again, only a couple Microsoft divisions are actually profitable... the ones Microsoft has a monoply in... :?
