Bill Gates will never leave Microsoft

In just a few short days, Bill Gates will enter retired life and leave active duty as the head honcho of Microsoft. For years, he has told us that this day would come, but he was never willing to admit when and for a long time, I figured it never would. Gates is not only a workaholic, but someone who loves his company more than any other CEO I've ever seen and has a competitive streak that's second to none. If it weren't for Google and Apple, he would have been gone a long time ago.

Like Apple's performance

Like Apple's performance when Steve Jobs left, I agree that Microsoft will tank hard when Bill leaves. Unlike Steve Jobs, however, Bill isn't going to create a new OS or pioneer the next cinematographic concept.

When Bill returns to what is left of Microsoft, he won't be able to give Windows the version X treatment; there won't be any cutting-edge Media company to sell off to Disney for market strategy favours.

I hope Bill does come back from his sojourns with something that can rejuvenate the Computer Industry, but at his age, I don't think he has it in him anymore.

Where Google Chrome security fails: the password
I heard mention that the Chrome OS will have some sort of encryption available a la bitlocker. If it's possible to encrypt personal data using another password or key, then it may have potential for very secure data.... And Ubuntu has an 'encrypt home directory' option, perhaps google should follow suit.
