Gates: Microsoft fights back from underdog status on search | |

After vague statements over the last weeks about internal investments that will allow it to compete in search without Yahoo, Microsoft on Wednesday laid out more of its vision for improving on its current "underdog" position in search. While describing some new search technologies from Microsoft and some future ideas, executives were also cautious to repeat that theirs is a long-term vision that may take a while to spell success for the company. They spoke during an annual get-together for advertisers, this year hosted on Microsoft's campus in Redmond, Washington.

| "I have to say, it's kind of fun to be the underdog," Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates confessed. If this isn't a crock of it, what is? |

| Bill Gates says a lot of things, and some of them are even true. |

Yeah, I remember once he said there'd be something like a PC on every desk and in every home... and the world howled - laughing at him openly...
Later he said that the power of software hadn't yet been realized and that what we think is powerful now is only the beginning... many people scoffed. Man was created to aspire to greater things for himself and others. Bill Gates provides one of the best examples of this. Others seem to hope for and want man to be defined by some socialist state - where all are reduced to one common existence - where extra effort is never rewarded - removing any incentive to do well, or work hard. |

Bill Gates is leaving and the bean counters have gained control of MS too...
and part of my retirement is sinking. (-: Like Bill or not he was a visionaire and he will be sorely missed both by enthusiasts and shareholders. |
