[Gates' predictions]

<<<Didn't Gates also dismiss the internet in one of his past predictions?>>>

I wouldn't know. I'm not one of his disciples and only noticed this b/c of the DSL mention. In terms of his involvement with DSL, Microsoft has teamed with GTE in ADSL trials since early in '96, I believe. He's a proponent of highspeed bandwidth for the Internet and is quite frankly agnostic in terms of how he gets it. As I once said, he'd use homing pigeons if they worked.

Happy New Year!
