Gates - Image 1No less than Microsoft founder and Chairman Bill Gates, Panasonic President Toshihiro Sakamoto and Intel CEO Paul Otellini will keynote the 2008 International CES organized by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) in Las Vegas Nevada on January 7-10 of next year.

This was announced by the CEA as it ushers in the latest that the industry has to offer for people who like to live off the high-end. The show is known as a stage for previews of upcoming products and campaigns of each firm.

Gates is scheduled to kick things off with a pre-show talk discussing the state of the computer world and how his company is pushing it forward. Sakamoto and Otellini are set to do similar speeches as the first day progresses.

Some 2,700 exhibitors will show off their latest gear encompassing some 30 areas which include entertainment, wireless connectivity, audio and gaming. Products such as gaming consoles, TVs, notebook computers and portable audio are just some of the many devices which have been shown off in the past CES gatherings.

» Linux?...Yawn

There's always people going on about Linux and how it's this and that and how Windows is this and that, but in the end, it's about delivering for the users, and Windows does this far better than Linux. By users, I mean ALL the people who use a PC, both beginners and experts, from those who simply want to edit a document or send an email, or those who want to setup a server, to hardcore gamers who want the best their PCs can offer for games. Linux just isn't good in ALL these areas, but Windows is. Yes Linux is better in certain areas and therefore has it's strengths, but it's not friendly enough or diverse enough for the mass market, and therefore is still an OS for those who know enough about PCs to make the switch themselves.



"no more Windows crap freezez and crashes....and wasting 400$ worth of your money"



If you're competent enough to deal with Linux, then you *should* be competent enough to prevent crashes in Windows. Hence I rarely have a crash in Windows unless it's a hardware problem (most recently my power supply). I use all the tools available to keep my PC in great working order, however many people do not bother, and therefore it's no surprise that things go wrong for such users.



"once you start using it,you,l never go back"



I tried it, and it's not worth making a switch for, but it's good if you have specific uses in mind, such as setting up a web server for example.

» Correct wq

For the average user at home, Linux is just not a good alternative to Windows. However, for the more experienced PC user, Linux can be a great choice for specific tasks.
