Microsoft chairman Bill Gates on Tuesday said PCs with increasing processing power and rich Web applications would work hand-in-hand with the Internet to deliver services across devices, whether mobile or in the living room.
Among the shifts in home computing is the move to 64-bit applications running on multicore processors that not only provide faster processing, but also more system memory for faster application performance, Gates said. Such technology will find its way not only into desktops and notebooks, but into handheld devices - including the cell phone.
