Buck,

Bill Gates....when not meeting with NRID.......comments on the future.

Here is a quote from Bill Gates.......

Very soon, Internet access will be imbedded in everyday devices like your refrigerator -- so milk can be ordered before you run out. Or your car -- so it can tell your garage when to schedule servicing, and what parts to have on-hand.

We will also have new devices like digital wallets, where we will keep all of our financial transactions, including cash. Through biometrics like thumb prints or retinal scans, the "wallet" will be unusable by anyone but its owner. Natural speech and handwriting recognition will let you talk to your PC, which will understand 99 percent of what you say. Scribble meeting notes on a tablet and they will be instantly transcribed. What we at Microsoft call "Advanced Intelligence" will allow your PC to learn who you are, how you work, and the important people in your life. Your computer will then use this information to help you perform tasks.

All of this technology should be everywhere in five years.

Bill Gates......bg.....Hmmmm.
