Bill Gates did a promotional video where he spoofs the Matrix. He plays Morpheus trying to free humanity from IBM. Anyone else find this amusing?

Bill Gates wrote:"We've got Steve-O indoctrinated," Gates said to nervous applause from the audience.
Interesting. Gates' desire to dominate must be so powerful he actually speaks them out loud without discretion.

I am reminded of Lenin freeing the people from the Czar.

Okay then:
You are unmable to fabricate this excretory sample...
As for the subject, I'm wondering what the hell is going on. When you control the vast majority of the computer market, I don't think you'll have to worry about IBM.

Bill Gates wants to control the computer market, not just the vast majority, IMO.

Correction: Vast majority of the Desktop PC market.
He is after the entire computer market and wants to branch out as well

Um... Shouldn't it be the other way around, making Microsoft the machines and IBM or any other competitor the humans trying to free us from the Microsoft Matrix....

That's sooo hilarious. If I were a multi-billionaire, hell.. I'd do something like that as well. Make an uber-hi tech version of a high school video project with your best buddy.

Um, yeah. Here's a
link to part of the movie. ("Spoiler")
Of course, the laptop running Linux crashes for no apparent reason and needs to have the kernel re-compiled. WTF?
Edit: Here's a (bad) shot of the "pills"
