Allow me to go off-topic for a bit.

So that’s what we get for Bill’s last CES Keynote. No product announcement, a few demos or technologies we already know about and a funny video about his last day in the office. I mean, come on Microsoft. Where’s that XBox 360 Ultimate SKU everyone was talking about. How about at least a comment on the ongoing HD format war. What about a shiny new product that I can get interested in ?

Bill is an insanely intelligent guy, very successful, but he’s no Steve Jobs when giving presentations. On the positive side, that presentation gave me the opportunity to test Microsoft’s Silverlight on Mac and it works great. It’s good to know that Microsoft’s ‘Flash Killer‘ at least works well on the platform.

Hey, we got the Zune in Canada. Yawn…. Now Steve, could we please get a canadian iPhone? I’ve been a good boy all year and bought all your products and I swear I’ll continue to do so. Please?
