Bill Gates' Last Day at Microsoft

January 7th 2008 23:12

Bill Gates arrested mug shot jail picture

This is hilarious... Bill Gates gave the keynote speech this week at CES 2008, announcing that he was retiring as Chairman of Microsoft (but he'll still be on the board).

In addition to the speech, there was a skit played on the screen that showed Bill's last day at Microsoft, poking fun at Gates... it's an unusually funny side of Gates, self-deprecating, using a lot of star cameos to poke fun. We're talking Jay-Z, Bono, George Clooney and more!

It's all good, though it hits a high note when Gates records the rap verse with Jay-Z, and HOVA looks to the camera, with a hint of fear...

Gates wailing away on Guitar Hero is always a great moment, especially since there's a lot of Guitar Heroists out there that feel like they've learned to play guitar...

Made me smile, loved the "Russell Crowe should play Gates" line...and the "Dark helmet" style playing with action figures

Hah. That was so very American.

But I do love Bill! I saw a documentary about him once that made me cry. I get the feeling he is really very generous and humble.

It was about him helping all these poor sick kids, and he just suddenly burst into tears, and then I burst into tears...
