People News. Steve & Bill at D!
People News. Steve & Bill at D: Gizmodo makes the best reference to this epic event*. Bill Gates and Steve Jobs took the stage tonight for the Wall Street Journal's D - all things digital conference. After a day of announcements (i.e., the new Apple TV that plays YouTube clips & a DRM free iTunes) fans looked forward to the two computer icons coming together on this rare occasion.
As the Wall Street Journal reports: "Bill Gates and Steve Jobs wasted no time in their much-anticipated joint performance at D in trying to one-up each other — with compliments. 'Bill built the first software company in the industry. And I think he built the first software company before anybody in our industry knew what a software company was,' said Mr. Jobs. 'What Steve’s done is quite phenomenal,' Mr. Gates responded, going on to comment on the 'incredible taste and elegance' with which Apple’s Mr. Jobs has pursued new products. 'His ability to always come around and figure out where that next bet should be has been phenomenal.'"
