A little on the old side but still good. I did a search but didn't see it posted. Timeline me if you must.

Was he doing the MS Office part of a MacWorld Keynote?

I'm not sure how old it is but I am willing to bet that it is pre-Win95. Bill is on the young side here. What a sexy beast

I think that might have been taken from Steve's introduction of the Mac in 1984.

Its probably from 97 when he said they invested $150 million in Apple. Could be wrong though.

He's too young for that. I'm guessing 1984 as well.

Thanks for the clip.

I've always assumed that snippet to be from the introduction of Microsoft Word in 1985, no?

Somebody needs to recompress that video. 6.2MB for a few seconds of video with little motion is ridiculous -- it could probably be taken down to 500KB with adequate video quality.

If it belonged to me I would. Does anyone have a link to a smaller one? I can redo the link if someone can point me in the right direction.

Nope. Not in there.

The Mac was introduced at the 1984 Apple shareholder's meeting. Bill Gates was definitely NOT invited.
