   I guess Mr. Gates didn't want to put all his eggs in one basket. :)   
      
   This is getting off-topic, but last night I came across an early Windows ad   
   (video) featuring Steve Ballmer as a used car salesman type:   
   http://www.compfused.com/directlink/179   
   The ad is really over the top, and I just wonder if it was made as kind of a   
   joke for one of their conferences or something.
