Bill Gates tries to raise hipster score with Daily Show appearance

5:50 PM on 01.30.2007 | World Famous

45 comments

In case you missed it last night, here's the ever-so-cool Bill Gates speaking with The Daily Show's Jon Stewart about the magical magicness of Windows Vista. Quick poll: Who was funnier? Bill Gates or Jon Stewart? Oooh, I can't wait to see the results.

Take a theoretical look at the Microsoft store

He seems like a pretty nice dude. He should buy me dinner.

Aetsen

I want his moneys.

Danzuke

Stewrt asking what his pet names were was a pretty good exchange

gamehunter101

none of them are that funny colbert owns them

tuanster1119

I liked the awkward moment when Bill gets up and leaves right after the interview.

Rainbowblack

the "14 year olds" line would have been funny had bill not laughed at his own joke

Toneman

Damnit, I thought that was my post. When in actuallity, it was somebody posting with my avatar.

Joseph Leray

Seriously though, what does the F12 button do? Gates does a lot with his hands. He has huge fucking hands, and he waves them all over the place. Weird.

World Famous

Bill is a busy man. He can't be bothered to stay for mindless chit chat.

Buster

when he ran out of there i was laughing, he hesitated, then out of embarrasment ran for backstage

chado53

smart guy

velcroman

F12 is to pop up the dashboard...o wait, bill gates, windows

Darren Nakamura

I actually liked the 14 year old joke.

JamesSorensen

people still think daily show is hip?

nightmareci

Seriously, what is the point of most of the F# keys in Windows? Sure, they're used well in OS X, but in Windows? I think they could do some good things with a few keys. Maybe even make a Windows version of Dashboard and use the same key.

MusashiX2

i think Gates came off as an ass hole when he bolted off the set. i got the impression throughout the whole interview that he wanted more questions about the specifics of vista. when he left at the end, he seemed like a little cry baby to me...

john stewart was funnier anyway.

Cory_t_

Someone could very easily take the sound out of that interview and replace it with a hip hop song. Billy moves his hands like a gangster!

"i got window vista its pretty Cool but its like mac but better i think macs are Queer computers who acully owns a mac"

LMAO! I'm not making fun man, but this sentence made me laugh... alot!

Namelessted

Bill Gates is THE man.

Toneman

How many TV shows do you see Gates on? He probably just doesn't know that you're supposed to sit there till the cameras cut out.

ManSpirit

I still have no interest in Vista. It seems like a useless upgrade unless you are a hardcore gamer. At lest XP brought much needed stability.

Namelessted

Vista is going to be awesome. Its not just gaming. Using the PC will be easier from what I have seen.

scrap

Will I be able to get teh emails on my vistas? Can I jack into the intertubes?

ManSpirit

How will computing be made easier?

Cruds

He looks and sounds like Kermit the Frog. Can't care less about Vista. Its an operation system, can it be more boring? And why would it be awesome for gaming cus it got DirectX 10? They could have that on XP too they just choose not to so the can sell more vista crap.

velcroman

vista is nice, a shit load better than XP, but i'm still sticking with OS X. this about sums up what i think about vista:http://www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/joyimages/915.gif

dprime

I think everyone is too hard on Bill Gates for every little mannerism he has. If anyone other than he or George Bush made most of rhe mistakes they get called on in public no one would care (to say nothing of the actual mistakes George Bush has made.)

velcroman

i think gates is a cool guy, i just bet he was in a rush to catch a plane, not that he's a nerd or something, he's been interview a million times, he knows what to do.

jerrt

[to comment on a song] weird al can call him "Money" I think john should be able to call him "Money" too. [:

Mabec

damn, that was funny. F12, my best friend.

Oni

That was a pretty cool interview. Man, Gates sure talks with his hands a lot. I'm shocked somebody didn't lose an eye.

And regarding the leaving early thing, He's Bill FUCKING Gates! The Bill. The Richest Man In The Fucking Known Universe. If he wanted to take a shit on Stewart's desk, not only would he be able to, but there is no way in hell he would suffer repercussions.

velcroman

kunikos, ever hear of boot camp?

Angry Irish

"i got window vista its pretty Cool but its like mac but better i think macs are Queer computers who acully owns a mac"

I use macs, you fucker, and I'm using one now. Believe me. They have brought much happiness.

Snaileb

That interview was lame. And I WATCHED the whole show.

Tubatic

AngryIrish- "I use macs, you fucker, and I'm using one now. Believe me. They have brought much happiness."

quoted for truth, and hilarity

what about the flying toaster burn
