Seriously, he’s never got the respect he deserves, he has rescued Apple several times since the start, like an older brother. He gives a vast sum of money to charity, he is one of the only big bosses who knows the very core of a computer, and yet still people lay into him when they delete their own documents, or their PC crashes and they haven’t saved for 3 hours. Well, I have to say, he is a hero of mine, he is the father of software, and I respect him hugely.
Anyway, his keynote speech at CES 2008 was a light hearted look at what his last day at microsoft might be like, it’s not laugh out loud funny, but light hearted, and shows that he’s got a sense of humour, in fact, if you see the interviews on Gizmodo, he’s really quite fun. So, here it is:
