OTTAWA -- Microsoft Corp. founder Bill Gates said Tuesday the company's Windows Vista operating system had been incredibly well received. "People who sell PCs have seen a very nice lift in their sales. People have come in and wanted to buy Vista," Gates told reporters at an Ottawa news conference.

| Ottawa? Why even bother? Us canucks wouldn't even count for 1/100th of Vista sales. What the heck is Gates in the northern tundra for? ;) |
