No wonder R&D at Microsoft is throwing money into a pit with Bill and Orange Crush calling the shots on everything that could be possibly invested in. Total waste of time.
You have to admire Microsoft's PR skills. Gates has been doing this "Think Week" thing for years. Suddenly, because they allow a reporter in, it's big news. You'd think the Wall Street Journal discovered "Think Week" all on its own.
It's fascinating how easily manipulated the media are.
