Gates touts TiVo deal at CES | CNET News.com "Gates started out by giving an overview of Microsoft's digital media strategy, assisted by talk show host Conan O'Brien. Gates said Microsoft would continue to make it easier to unite digital experiences. 'If you look at today's living room, you have five remote controls and you still can't get your music where you want it,' Gates said." Blah blah blah blah blah. Didn't he say this 5 years ago? Actually you CAN get your music where you want for acouple hundred dollars if you are of a mind to do so. Do I want to spend $1000 or more for a Microsoft solution? Probably not. Those five remotes don't get viruses... "The presentation was marred by several technical glitches, including a Windows XP Media Center slide show that couldn't be launched and an Xbox game demonstration that abruptly ended with a blue-screen memory error." Uh huh, like we said.
