Microsoft and K-fed

Contrast this from Scoble:

One thing apparent as soon as you get off of a plane here in Las Vegas is that Microsoft is spending a lot of money and effort marketing Windows Vista. There’s Vista billboards everywhere, it seems. In front of the main convention hall there’s a huge tent that Microsoft owns and Microsoft has one of the biggest booths here at CES (and was among the most crowded last year).

This is Microsoft’s biggest show in years. Billions of dollars are in play.

with this review of Gates’ keynote from Forbes:

Snore. No wonder a few hundred people walked out early. Microsoft should have brought back out the jugglers, mimes and guys on stilts that entertained attendees as they filtered into the ballroom at the Venetian.

And in case Scoble thinks this is yet another sign of MSM bias against Microsoft, Forbes’ opinion is backed up by Scoble pal Dave Winer:

The Gates keynote was borrrring (no surprise) so I left early and came over to the Bloghaus blogging party.

Final note: I am not sure, but is Mr. Gates advocating more porn?

Remember Bill, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas!
