Default The creator of Ctrl+Alt+Del

Haha this is great. It's an interview with the guy who created the Ctrl+Alt+Del function and towards the end he gets a good crack in on Gates. But yeah, I bet he got fired the next morning

Gates needs to take some of that money he has and buy a sense of humor.

^I can't watch that because I'm at work, but it's probably Dave Bradley, and he's a professor at the college I just graduated from, North Carolina State University. I never had him but he was a really cool professor. He also works for IBM, not Microsoft, so I doubt he'd get fired for it In fact depending on the mood of the execs at IBM towards MS he might get a raise, lol

that was a joke in bad taste. i'd be pissed as well. laughing at a joke like that would be basically admitting that the software your company produces is faulty and requires frequent rebooting to alleviate the problem. sure it may be true, but as founder and ceo of a multibillion dollar company, you would never and could never even remotely admit to that in public.
