Bill Gates Keynote Gets The Blue Screen Of Death

No news isn’t always good news, and Bill Gates didn’t have much to say at last night’s keynote address: nothing new about the XBox, and he pushed his lovefest with TiVo and the slowly-developing plans for digital media transfers between storage and players.
