If you’ve been following Bill Gates’ media tour this week (I have, with mild interest) you may have watched him on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart last night and nearly every other outlet in the last 24 hours. Most bizarre for me has been watching him highlight features of Vista and pretend that Microsoft “innovated” them. 

Still on the Vista media blitz, Gates appeared on CNN only to be asked the question of questions: “Were you going after a specific look there, the Mac look?” The following YouTube clip from CNN is entertaining as the host pushes Gates toward admitting his continued inspiration in Cupertino…

As Cult of Mac puts it, “Bill Gates occupies [an] alternative universe where Vista is innovative.” Amusing.
