Slash and Gates!

Not sure who lost the most credibility on this one.
Billgatesad

To a backdrop of Guitar Heroes Gates strutted his funky stuff with Slash from Guns and Roses. It was only for a few minutes but my word the performance was bad – like watching the parents dancing when you're a teenager.

Add in Bill's very odd clothing choice and it was a weird way to say goodbye.

It all bought up Miles Davis' supposed description of another jazz man:

 

"Couldn't swing if you hung 'im."

Windows Electra ongoing fight.

Hi,

My name is John Gooch and I posted several months ago about my creation and ownership of Windows Electra, all art inspired, glass, metals, 3D, etc.

Windows Vista was completely inspired by
Windows Electra, I have been in communication with Bill Gates for over 6 years, original communication was because I created the ad phrase, "Welcome to the World of" for a product brochure that Microsoft used for "Welcome to the World of
Windows 95", which sold over 117 million copies.

On April 4, Microsoft announced that their next version of Windows, "Code 7" will be released later next year. Incidentally there
are 7 letters in Electra.

I am posting this note because of Mr. Gates refusal to cooperate in paying me for Windows Electra or any of the other thefts that have landed in the hands of Microsoft.

I invented the lighted mouse and Microsoft was the first to mass market it.

Microsoft will not market Windows Electra unless I receive payment arrangments that Mr. Gates is aware of.

There is also a theme service for Windows Electra, users can download or rent themes from a variety of over 3000 themes, additional themes will be added to the service if Microsoft buys the theme service
for Windows Electra.

Sincerely
John Gooch
