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,' says Gates.
'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,' he continues.
In response to all this goading, the GM chairman
replies, 'Yes, but would you really want to drive
a car that crashes four times a day?'
