Bill Gates’ Last Day At Microsoft LOL Video from CES
Jan 7 2008

In case you missed it, here is the hilarious video about Bill Gates’ last day at Microsoft that was shown at his final keynote address at the Computer Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas yesterday.  I think it’s so great to see his fun side!  As an entrepreneur, I am in awe at what he has accomplished in his lifetime and even did a post about a prior appearance of his with Steve Jobs a while back.

The video stars Brian Williams, Steve Ballmer, Matthew McConaughey, Robbie Bach, Jay-Z, Bono, Steven Spielberg, George Clooney, Jon Stewart, Kevin Turner, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Al Gore, and others.  Thanks to Long Zheng for posting his own video and helping me find a link. Here’s the link to the YouTube video that will hopefully show properly below (its been off & on again).

    Aruni,

    What was the car that he was driving ? Yes BG must be a democrat. The retirement film reminded me of the “Final Days” video of Bill Clinton. http://politicalhumor.about.com/library/blclintonfinaldaysvideo.htm

    HI aruni,

    Thanks for putting up this video. Just minor correction, isn’t it Consumer Electronic Show?

    I’m going to link my next post to this page (if you don’t mind). It’s my new “I Surf So You Don’t Have To” series. Mostly for my non-techie friends 🙂

    See ya on Twitter.

    @Shashi – I was wondering the same about what car he was driving. The person talking at the time made a comment about Bill’s “focus” so thought crossed my mind that it could be a Ford Focus. 🙂

    @Zena – no problem!

    @Thomas Han – thanks for catching that correction. Yes, it should be Consumer…was typing too fast this morning. I crossed it out and wrote Consumer in the post above. I definitely don’t mind you linking to the site.
