Bill Gates and GM

Bill Gates is hanging out with the chairman of General Motors.
"If automotive technology had kept pace with computer technology

 over the past few decades," boasts Gates, "you would now be

driving a V-32 instead of a V-8, and it would have a top speed of

 10,000 miles per hour. Or, you could have an economy car that

weighs 30 pounds and gets a thousand miles to a gallon of gas.

 In either case, the sticker price of a new car would be less than $50."
"Sure," says the GM chairman. "But would you really want to drive

a car that crashes four times a day?"
